MATTHEW 15:18 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 1
“But those things which proceed out of the mouth come forth from the heart; and they defile the man.”
But what comes out of the mouth proceeds from the heart, and this defiles a person. The heart is the source of what exits the mouth: the speech that comes out of the mouth has the heart as its origin, and it is the heart's condition that makes the speech defiling. The defiling speech is the evidence of the defiling heart; addressing the speech without addressing the heart is the Pharisaic error.
