14 "Let them alone. They are blind men leading the blind; and if one blind man leads another, both of them will fall into a ditch."
15 Then Peter said to Jesus, "Explain the parable to us."

18 while what comes out of the mouth comes from the heart—and that is what defiles a man.
19 For out of the heart come forth evil thoughts, murder, adultery, unchastity, theft, perjury, slander.
20 These are the things that defile a man; to eat with unwashed hands does not defile a man."
