Mark 7:3-5

Revised Geneva Translation

³ (For the Pharisees, and all the Jews, do not eat unless they have washed their hands, holding to the traditions of the elders.

⁴ And when they come from the market, they do not eat until they have washed. And there are many other things there which they have taken upon themselves to observe - such as the washing of cups and pots and of metal vessels and of meal mats).

⁵ Then the Pharisees and Scribes asked Jesus, “Why do not Your disciples walk according to the tradition of the elders, but eat with unwashed hands?”
