Matthew 15:4
jesus calls the pharisees hypocrites because they allowed their traditions to overule the command of g-d. their tradition was to dedicate something “devoted to g-d” in order to get out of doing it somewhere else. so instead of helping their parents, as g-d had commanded in the old testament, they would devote their help “to g-d.” to get out of doing so.
matthew 15:4 in context (3-9):jesus replied, “and why do you break the command of g-d for the sake of your tradition? for g-d said, ‘honor your father and mother’ and ‘anyone who curses his father or mother must be put to death.’but you say that if a man says to his father or mother, ‘whatever help you might otherwise have received from me is a gift devoted to g-d,’ he is not to ‘honor his father’ with it. thus you nullify the word of g-d for the sake of your tradition. you hypocrites! isaiah was right when he prophesied about you:
” ‘these people honor me with their lips,
but their hearts are far from me.
they worship me in vain;
their teachings are but rules taught by men.’
