Mark 7:2
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
and they saw some of His disciples eating with hands that were defiled—that is, unwashed.
In context
1 Then the Pharisees and some of the scribes who had come from Jerusalem gathered around Jesus,
2 and they saw some of His disciples eating with hands that were defiled—that is, unwashed.
3 Now in holding to the tradition of the elders, the Pharisees and all the Jews do not eat until they wash their hands ceremonially.
4 And on returning from the market, they do not eat unless they wash. And there are many other traditions for them to observe, including the washing of cups, pitchers, kettles, and couches for dining.
