Clean and Unclean; Jesus Heals the Canaanite Woman's Daughter, Feeds Four Thousand
Matthew
1 Jesus reproves the Scribes and Pharisees , 7 for transgressing God's commandments through their own traditions, 10 teaches how that which goes into the mouth does not defile a man, 21 He heals the daughter of the woman of Canaan, 29 and other great multitudes, 32 and with seven loaves and a few small fish feeds four thousand men
Mar 7:5;Gal 1:14;Col 2:8 2 Why do thy disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? for they wash not their hands when they eat bread.
3 But he answered and said unto them, Why do ye also transgress the commandment of God by your tradition?
Lev 20:9;Deu 27:16;Pro 20:20 4 For God commanded, saying, Honour thy father and mother: and, He that curseth father or mother, let him die the death.
Mar 7:115 But ye say, Whosoever shall say to his father or his mother, It is a gift, by whatsoever thou mightest be profited by me;
6 And honour not his father or his mother, he shall be free. Thus have ye made the commandment of God of none effect by your tradition.
Mar 7:67 Ye hypocrites, well did Esaias prophesy of you, saying,
Isa 29:138 This people draweth nigh unto me with their mouth, and honoureth me with their lips; but their heart is far from me.
Isa 29:13;Col 2:18;1 Tim 1:6-7 9 But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.
Mar 7:1410 ¶ And he called the multitude, and said unto them, Hear, and understand:
Mar 7:15;Act 10:15;Rom 14:14 11 Not that which goeth into the mouth defileth a man; but that which cometh out of the mouth, this defileth a man.
12 Then came his disciples, and said unto him, Knowest thou that the Pharisees were offended, after they heard this saying?
Joh 15:2;1 Cor 3:12 13 But he answered and said, Every plant, which my heavenly Father hath not planted, shall be rooted up.
Luk 6:39;Mat 23:16;Mal 2:8 14 Let them alone: they be blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch.
Mar 7:1715 Then answered Peter and said unto him, Declare unto us this parable.
1 Cor 6:1317 Do not ye yet understand, that whatsoever entereth in at the mouth goeth into the belly, and is cast out into the draught?
Pro 6:12;Mat 12:34;Jam 3:6 18 But those things which proceed out of the mouth come forth from the heart; and they defile the man.
Mar 7:21;Jer 17:9;Pro 6:14 19 For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies:
20 These are the things which defile a man: but to eat with unwashen hands defileth not a man.
21 ¶ Then Jesus went thence, and departed into the coasts of Tyre and Sidon.
22 And, behold, a woman of Canaan came out of the same coasts, and cried unto him, saying, Have mercy on me, O Lord, thou Son of David; my daughter is grievously vexed with a devil.
23 But he answered her not a word. And his disciples came and besought him, saying, Send her away; for she crieth after us.
Isa 53:6;Mat 10:5-6;Act 3:25-26 24 But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
25 Then came she and worshipped him, saying, Lord, help me.
Rev 22:15;Phi 3:2;Eph 2:12 26 But he answered and said, It is not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast it to dogs.
27 And she said, Truth, Lord: yet the dogs eat of the crumbs which fall from their masters' table.
28 Then Jesus answered and said unto her, O woman, great is thy faith: be it unto thee even as thou wilt. And her daughter was made whole from that very hour.
Mar 1:16;Joh 6:23;Joh 6:1 29 ¶ And Jesus departed from thence, and came nigh unto the sea of Galilee; and went up into a mountain, and sat down there.
Luk 7:22;Mat 11:5;Isa 35:5-6 30 And great multitudes came unto him, having with them those that were lame, blind, dumb, maimed, and many others, and cast them down at Jesus' feet; and he healed them:
31 Insomuch that the multitude wondered, when they saw the dumb to speak, the maimed to be whole, the lame to walk, and the blind to see: and they glorified the God of Israel.
Heb 5:2;Heb 4:15;Heb 2:17 32 Then Jesus called his disciples unto him, and said, I have compassion on the multitude, because they continue with me now three days, and have nothing to eat: and I will not send them away fasting, lest they faint in the way.
2 Kin 4:43;Num 11:21-22 33 And his disciples say unto him, Whence should we have so much bread in the wilderness, as to fill so great a multitude?

35 And he commanded the multitude to sit down on the ground.
Mat 14:19;Deu 8:10;1 Sam 9:13 36 And he took the seven loaves and the fishes, and gave thanks, and brake them, and gave to his disciples, and the disciples to the multitude.
Psa 147:9;Psa 145:15;Psa 136:25 37 And they did all eat, and were filled: and they took up of the broken meat that was left seven baskets full.
38 And they that did eat were four thousand men, beside women and children.
