1 Then certain scribes and Pharisees of Jerusalem came unto Jesus, saying,
2 Why do thy disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? For they do not wash 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?
4 For God commanded, saying, Honour thy father and mother, and, He that curses father or mother, let him die without recourse.
