Tradition Conceals Truth
Monday Club Sermons
Mark 7:1-16
Then came together to him the Pharisees, and certain of the scribes, which came from Jerusalem.


Each generation encumbered the divinely ordained ritual with its own comments; so after awhile men's notions overgrew and hid from sight God's thought, as some wild vine in the forest wreathes its fetters of verdure around the hearty tree, interlacing and interknotting its sprays, looping mesh on mesh of pliant growth, till the tree is smothered and hidden, and the all-encompassing vine alone is seen and seems to bare life.
