Mark 7:22 In-Context

20 He continued, "It's what comes out of a person that makes him unclean.
21 Evil thoughts, sexual sins, stealing, murder,
22 adultery, greed, wickedness, cheating, shameless lust, envy, cursing, arrogance, and foolishness come from within a person.
23 All these evils come from within and make a person unclean."
24 Jesus left that place and went to the territory of Tyre. He didn't want anyone to know that he was staying in a house there. However, it couldn't be kept a secret.
