20And he said, That which cometh out of the man, that defileth the man. 21For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders, 22Thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness: 23All these evil things come from within, and defile the man.
In this passage, Jesus is teaching that true defilement comes from within a person's heart, not from external sources like food or unwashed hands. He emphasizes the importance of purity of heart and righteous intentions. Jesus is reminding his followers that it is not what enters into a person that defiles them, but what comes out of their hearts and minds.
In Mark verses 7:1-13, the Pharisees complain to Jesus that his disciples eat with unwashed hands, then Jesus responds. After, Jesus calls all the pople together to give an obscure sermon that, on the surface, would mean that only what a man says or does could defile him. But the meaning is deeper, when we look at the passage in a broader context. Verses 6:33-8:21 contain a series of miracles and discourses with at least ten references or allusions to food and a theme of not understanding. Verses 7:14-23 look back to the complaint from the Pharisees and through it all the way back to feeding the five thousand. They also look forward to verse 8:21, when Jesus asks why the disciples do not understand:
