The Story
Then some Pharisees and teachers of the law came to Jesus from Jerusalem and asked, “Why do your disciples break the tradition of the elders? They don’t wash their hands before they eat!”
Jesus replied, “And why do you break the command of God for the sake of your tradition? For God said, ‘Honor your father and mother’ and ‘Anyone who curses their father or mother is to be put to death.’ But you say that if anyone declares that what might have been used to help their father or mother is ‘devoted to God,’ they are not to ‘honor their father or mother’ with it. Thus you nullify the word of God for the sake of your tradition. You hypocrites! Isaiah was right when he prophesied about you:
“ ‘These people honor me with their lips,
but their hearts are far from me.
They worship me in vain;
their teachings are merely human rules.’”
Jesus called the crowd to him and said, “Listen and understand. What goes into someone’s mouth does not defile them, but what comes out of their mouth, that is what defiles them.”
Then the disciples came to him and asked, “Do you know that the Pharisees were offended when they heard this?”
He replied, “Every plant that my heavenly Father has not planted will be pulled up by the roots.

Pharisees and teachers (from Jerusalem) taught that goodness comes from what we do.

This kind of teaching leads us wrong direction - the pit
if you do these things you will do well
This kind of teaching is about style more than actual commandments in the Bible

What goes into someone’s mouth does not defile them, but what comes out of their mouth, that is what defiles them.”

Story 2
Leaving that place, Jesus withdrew to the region of Tyre and Sidon. A Canaanite woman from that vicinity came to him, crying out, “Lord, Son of David, have mercy on me! My daughter is demon-possessed and suffering terribly.”
Jesus did not answer a word. So his disciples came to him and urged him, “Send her away, for she keeps crying out after us.”
He answered, “I was sent only to the lost sheep of Israel.”
The woman came and knelt before him. “Lord, help me!” she said.
He replied, “It is not right to take the children’s bread and toss it to the dogs.”
“Yes it is, Lord,” she said. “Even the dogs eat the crumbs that fall from their master’s table.”
Then Jesus said to her, “Woman, you have great faith! Your request is granted.” And her daughter was healed at that moment.

Miracles are not enough — They illustrate the greater point.

Get near Jesus
Canaanite
Throughout OT Canaanite people were to be driven out
They were to be removed from their land to be generous to God’s chosen ppl
Understood who she was - even a dog
Demon cast out - element of Darkness on the inside.
It’s what’s on the inside.
It’s what’s on the inside.
When we get introspective we will recognize that left to our own devices, our thoughts are twisted.
The great miracle is the Jesus will cleanse us
