**tradition**
i.e. the so-called "oral law" alleged to have been handed down from Moses; really a traditional interpretation of the written law.
See margin ref., *(See Scofield "**")*

**for doctrines**
as authoritative the precepts of men. Cf. v. [Mark 7:5](../../../kjv/mark/7/5) See "Pharisees" [Matthew 3:7](../../../kjv/matthew/3/7) *(See Scofield "*[Matthew 3:7](../../../kjv/matthew/3/7)*")* Cf. ; [Colossians 2:8](../../../kjv/colossians/2/8); [Colossians 2:16](../../../kjv/colossians/2/16); [Colossians 2:18](../../../kjv/colossians/2/18); [Colossians 2:20](../../../kjv/colossians/2/20); [Colossians 2:23](../../../kjv/colossians/2/23)

**a gift**
Or, I have dedicated to God that which would relieve your need; [Mark 7:12](../../../kjv/mark/7/12).
No longer do you permit him to use it for his father or mother. Cf. [Matthew 15:5](../../../kjv/matthew/15/5); [Matthew 15:6](../../../kjv/matthew/15/6)

**Because it entereth**
Because it does not enter into the heart of him, but into the bowels is passed -- purifying all the food.

**Greek**
*(See Scofield "**")*

**And she**
She, however, answered, saying, True, Lord! and yet the little dogs under the table eat from the children's crumbs. [Romans 11:24](../../../kjv/romans/11/24); [Ephesians 2:11-22](../../../kjv/ephesians/2/11-22).
