The Pharisees and scribes liked to add traditions to the Law that were extrabiblical, meaning that we were found outside of Scripture. When they try to accuse Christ’s disciples of wrongdoing, Jesus turns the tables and shows them the way their traditions actually serve to violate God’s law, rather than fulfill it. He then teaches the crowd that it is not what enters a person’s mouth that makes them unclean, but what comes out of their mouth that makes them unclean. Later, a woman who isn’t Jewish approaches Jesus for help, asking him to heal her daughter. Surprised by her faith, Jesus grants her request. Miraculous signs continue where ever Jesus goes, attesting to his power and authority.
