Matthew Chapter 15 begins with a confrontation between Jesus and the Pharisees over the issue of ceremonial hand washing. Jesus criticizes them for prioritizing human traditions over God's commandments. He teaches that what defiles a person comes from the heart, not external practices. Jesus then travels to the region of Tyre and Sidon, where He heals the daughter of a Canaanite woman who shows great faith. Returning to Galilee, Jesus performs more healings and feeds four thousand people with seven loaves and a few small fish, demonstrating His compassion and miraculous provision once again.
