Mark 7:15-19 "There is nothing (not even one thing) from outside a person (a human) which, progressively entering into him, continues having power (is continuing able) to make him ritually defiled or unclean (or: can contaminate him or make him common). But to the contrary, the things habitually issuing forth from out of the person (human) – these things are habitually ritually defiling (contaminating; making common and unclean) the person (humanity). : - ; here is a reverse-contagion: the Land is clean by the Spirit comment: cf Hag.

JMNT⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁵ "There is nothing (not even one thing) from outside a person (a human) which, progressively entering into him, continues having power (is continuing able) to make him ritually defiled or unclean (or: can contaminate him or make him common). But to the contrary, the things habitually issuing forth from out of the person (human) – these things are habitually ritually defiling (contaminating; making common and unclean) the person (humanity). [comment: cf Hag. 2:4-19; here is a reverse-contagion: the Land is clean by the Spirit] ¹⁶ "If anyone continues having ears to hear, let him continue hearing (or: listening; or: = If someone can hear, let him pay attention to and obey what he is hearing)." ¹⁷ Now when He entered into a [other MSS: the] house, away from the crowd, His disciples began asking (or: inquiring of) Him about (concerning) the parable (the comparative illustration). ¹⁸ So He is then saying to them, "Do you people also thus continue being without understanding (a flowing together for perception and comprehension)? Are you folks still continuing to not use your mind and intellect (to not think or consider) so as to perceive and comprehend that nothing proceeding to enter into the person (human) continues having power or ability to ritually defile him (contaminate, pollute or make him common or unclean), ¹⁹ because it is not passing on into his heart, but rather, into the stomach and intestines (the cavity), and then proceeds to pass out into the toilet (evacuation seat; latrine)?" – [He is] proceeding in cleansing (making ritually clean) all foods!
