Matthew 15:3-6

Living Bible

³ He replied, “And why do your traditions violate the direct commandments of God? ⁴ For instance, God’s law is ‘Honor your father and mother; anyone who reviles his parents must die.’ ^5-6 But you say, ‘Even if your parents are in need, you may give their support money to the church^[a] instead.’ And so, by your man-made rule, you nullify the direct command of God to honor and care for your parents.
