And the Pharisees and the scribes asked him, “Why do your disciples not walk according to the tradition of the elders, but eat with defiled hands?”
Mark 7:5

The confrontation between #yeshua and the Pharisees in Mark 7 wasn't about clean vs unclean meat. It was about eating with unwashed hands, something that God never gave any instructions about. They would accost someone on the street for offending their social protocols, while inventing all kinds of convoluted justifications for breaking God's actual commandments.

They were like modern Christian churches who call alcohol "satanic" and then ask God to bless the ham sandwich they eat for lunch at their office desk on Saturday.
