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

The Pharisees gathered around Jesus. So did some of the teachers of the law. All of them had come from Jerusalem.

Now when the Pharisees gathered to him, with some of the scribes who had come from Jerusalem,

The Pharisees and some of the scribes who had come from Jerusalem gathered around him.

The Pharisees and some of the scribes* gathered to Him after they came from Jerusalem,

Then the Pharisees and some of the scribes came together to Him, having come from Jerusalem.

And there are gathered together unto him the Pharisees, and certain of the scribes, who had come from Jerusalem,

The Pharisees and some of the scribes who had come from Jerusalem gathered around Him.

Then came together unto him the Pharisees, and certain of the scribes, which came from Jerusalem.

Now the Pharisees and some of the experts in the law who came from Jerusalem gathered around him.

Then the Pharisees and some of the scribes gathered together to him, having come from Jerusalem.

But the teachers of religious law who had arrived from Jerusalem said,“ He’s possessed by Satan, the prince of demons. That’s where he gets the power to cast out demons.”

Some Pharisees and teachers of religious law now arrived from Jerusalem to see Jesus. They asked him,“ Why do your disciples disobey our age old tradition? For they ignore our tradition of ceremonial hand washing before they eat.”Jesus replied,“ And why do you, by your traditions, violate the direct commandments of God?For instance, God says,‘ Honor your father and mother,’ and‘ Anyone who speaks disrespectfully of father or mother must be put to death.’But you say it is all right for people to say to their parents,‘ Sorry, I can’t help you. For I have vowed to give to God what I would have given to you.’In this way, you say they don’t need to honor their parents. And so you cancel the word of God for the sake of your own tradition.You hypocrites! Isaiah was right when he prophesied about you, for he wrote,‘ These people honor me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me.Their worship is a farce, for they teach man made ideas as commands from God.’”Then Jesus called to the crowd to come and hear.“ Listen,” he said,“ and try to understand.It’s not what goes into your mouth that defiles you; you are defiled by the words that come out of your mouth.”Then the disciples came to him and asked,“ Do you realize you offended the Pharisees by what you just said?”Jesus replied,“ Every plant not planted by my heavenly Father will be uprooted,so ignore them. They are blind guides leading the blind, and if one blind person guides another, they will both fall into a ditch.”Then Peter said to Jesus,“ Explain to us the parable that says people aren’t defiled by what they eat.”“ Don’t you understand yet?” Jesus asked.“ Anything you eat passes through the stomach and then goes into the sewer.But the words you speak come from the heart— that’s what defiles you.For from the heart come evil thoughts, murder, adultery, all sexual immorality, theft, lying, and slander.These are what defile you. Eating with unwashed hands will never defile you.”

As Jesus was leaving, the teachers of religious law and the Pharisees became hostile and tried to provoke him with many questions.They wanted to trap him into saying something they could use against him.

One day while Jesus was teaching, some Pharisees and teachers of religious law were sitting nearby.( It seemed that these men showed up from every village in all Galilee and Judea, as well as from Jerusalem.) And the Lord’s healing power was strongly with Jesus.
