How to Get to the Heart of the Matter (Matthew 15: 1-10)

I.    Have you ever been criticized? 

1 Then the scribes and Pharisees who were from Jerusalem came to Jesus, saying, 2 “Why do Your disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? For they do not wash their hands when they eat bread.” 3 He answered and said to them, “Why do you also transgress the commandment of God because of your tradition? 4 For God commanded, saying, ‘Honour your father and your mother’; and, ‘He who curses father or mother, let him be put to death.’ 5 But you say, ‘Whoever says to his father or mother, “Whatever profit you might have received from me is a gift to God”— 6 then he need not honour his father or mother.’ Thus you have made the commandment of God of no effect by your tradition. 7 Hypocrites! Well did Isaiah prophesy about you, saying:

 8 ‘These people draw near to Me with their mouth,
 And honour Me with their lips,
 But their heart is far from Me.
 9 And in vain they worship Me,
10 Teaching as doctrines the commandments of men.’ ”

II.     A Complicated Passage.

III.    Hypocrites.
