Then axed him the pharisees & scribe / why walk not thy disciples according to the traditions §Bof the elders / but eat breed with unweshen hands? He answered and said unto them: well prophesied Isaiah of you hypocrites / as it is written:1 This people honoureth me with their lips / but their heart is far from me: In vain they worship me / teaching doctrines which are nothing but the commandments of men. For ye lay the commandment ⟨p. lvi⟩of God apart / & observe the traditions of men / as the washing of cruses and of cups / and many other such like things ye do.
