Do you worship Satan by washing your hands and following common sense HUMAN RULES ?

Why did Jesus get upset with the Pharisees when they asked him why the desciples eat w/ filthy unwashed hands?








Whats wrong with washing your hands before you eat ??????








Mark 7





1 The Pharisees and some of the teachers of the law who had come from Jerusalem gathered around Jesus





2 and saw some of his disciples eating food with hands that were defiled and filthy, that is, unwashed.





3 (The Pharisees and all the Jews do not eat unless they give their hands a ceremonial washing, holding to the tradition of the elders.





4 When they come from the marketplace they do not eat unless they wash. And they observe many other traditions, such as the washing of cups, pitchers and kettles. [a])





5 So the Pharisees and teachers of the law asked Jesus, ';Why don't your disciples live according to the tradition of the elders instead of eating their food with defiled hands?';





6 He replied, ';Isaiah was right when he prophesied about you hypocrites; as it is written:


'; 'These people honor me with their lips,


but their hearts are far from me.





7 They worship me in vain;


their teachings are merely HUMAN RULES.' [b]





.......Do you worship Satan by washing your hands and following common sense HUMAN RULES ?
It was not about simple cleanliness- the Pharisees turned it into a ceremony (think scrubbing like a surgeon before every meal). Jesus didnt mean that it was wrong to clean up- but that it should not be part of your religion!Do you worship Satan by washing your hands and following common sense HUMAN RULES ?
There is nothing wrong with it, unless you LIKE getting sick.
They were talking about a RITUALISTIC and meaningless action of ceremonial handwashing.





It doesn't mean that they didn't ';Wash'; their hands, it just means that they didn't perform the meaningless ritual, and so were ';filthy'; in the eyes of the hypocritical religious leaders who did EVERYTHING for show.
Because Microscopes were not invented then and J.C. do not know there is such a thing as micro-organism call germs.
Unclean words are worse! Outside of personal hygene, which is not the point, he exposed the flaw of 'traditions', religious, that is.
