Mateus 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.

Mateus 15:16 In-Context

14 Deixai-os; são guias cegos; ora, se um cego guiar outro cego, ambos cairão no barranco.
15 E Pedro, tomando a palavra, disse-lhe: Explica-nos essa parábola.
16 Respondeu Jesus: Estai vós também ainda sem entender?
17 Não compreendeis que tudo o que entra pela boca desce pelo ventre, e é lançado fora?
18 Mas o que sai da boca procede do coração; e é isso o que contamina o homem.
