Commentary on Mark 7:15
Nothing from outside entering defiles but things coming out defile. Revolutionary teaching challenges ceremonial purity laws. External ritual cannot make spiritually clean. Defilement is internal moral not external physical. Heart is source of sin not diet. Jesus fulfilled ceremonial law showed its purpose pointing to greater reality. Reformed theology sees fulfillment of ceremonial law in Christ. Moral law continues ceremonial shadows fulfilled.
