Matthieu 15:16 Meaning and Commentary

Matthew 15:16

And Jesus said
As wondering at, and as being displeased with, and as reproving them for their dulness and ignorance:

are ye also yet without understanding?
you, my disciples, as well as the Scribes and Pharisees; you, who have been with me so long, who have heard so many discourses from me, who for so long a time have been instructed by me, both in private, and in public; and yet do not understand what is so plain and easy, that has nothing of difficulty in it, but what might easily be accounted for.

Matthieu 15:16 In-Context

14 Laissez-les; ce sont des aveugles qui conduisent des aveugles; que si un aveugle conduit un autre aveugle, ils tomberont tous deux dans la fosse.
15 Alors Pierre, prenant la parole, lui dit: Explique-nous cette parabole.
16 Et Jésus dit: Vous aussi, êtes-vous encore sans intelligence?
17 Ne comprenez-vous pas que tout ce qui entre dans la bouche, s'en va dans le ventre et est jeté aux lieux secrets?
18 Mais ce qui sort de la bouche vient du cœur; c'est là ce qui souille l'homme.
