matthew 15:11 Not that which goeth into the mouth defileth a man; but that which cometh out of the mouth, this defileth a man.

matthew 15:11 "Not what enters into the mouth defiles the man, but what proceeds out of the mouth, this defiles the man."

11. Not that which goeth into the mouth defileth a man; but that which cometh out of the mouth, this defileth a man--This is expressed even more emphatically in Mark (Mr 7:15, 16), and it is there added, "If any man have ears to hear, let him hear." As in Mt 13:9, this so oft-repeated saying seems designed to call attention to the fundamental and universal character of the truth it refers to.

matthew 15:11 "Not what enters into the mouth defiles the man, but what proceeds out of the mouth, this defiles the man."
