CHAPTER STUDY WORKSPACE

Matthew 15

Jesus confronts Pharisees and scribes for elevating tradition above God’s command, teaching that defilement proceeds from the heart rather than merely from external contact. He then responds to a Canaanite woman’s persistent appeal for her daughter, heals many in the region, and feeds four thousand with seven loaves and a few fishes.
