And honors not his father or his mother, he shall be free. Thus have you made the commandment of God void by your tradition.
All Commentaries on Matthew 15:6 Go To Matthew 15
George Leo Haydock
AD 1849
And he shall not honour; that is, assist his father or his mother. It is doubtful whether these may not be the words of the Pharisees; but they rather seem the words of our Saviour Christ, especially seeing that in St. Mark, Christ himself adds: And, farther, you suffer him not to do any thing for his father or mother, making void the word of God by your tradition. (Witham)
