So he said, “Come.” Peter got out of the boat, walked on the water, and came toward Jesus.

He answered them, “And why do you disobey the commandment of God because of your tradition?

and they worship me in vain, teaching as doctrines the commandments of men.’”

What defiles a person is not what goes into the mouth; it is what comes out of the mouth that defiles a person.”

But the things that come out of the mouth come from the heart, and these things defile a person.

For out of the heart come evil ideas, murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false testimony, slander.

The Feeding of the Four Thousand

Then Jesus called his disciples and said, “I have compassion on the crowd, because they have already been here with me three days and they have nothing to eat. I don’t want to send them away hungry since they may faint on the way.”

He said, “When evening comes you say, ‘It will be fair weather, because the sky is red,’

For the Son of Man will come with his angels in the glory of his Father, and then he will reward each person according to what he has done.

I tell you the truth, there are some standing here who will not experience death before they see the Son of Man coming in his kingdom.”

They said to him, “Why then did Moses command us to give a certificate of dismissal and to divorce her?”

Now I say to you that whoever divorces his wife, except for immorality, and marries another commits adultery.”

But Jesus said, “Let the little children come to me and do not try to stop them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.”

He said to him, “Why do you ask me about what is good? There is only one who is good. But if you want to enter into life, keep the commandments.”

“Which ones?” he asked. Jesus replied, “Do not murder, do not commit adultery, do not steal, do not give false testimony,

Jesus said to him, “If you wish to be perfect, go sell your possessions and give the money to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.”
