All these evil things [schemes and desires] come from within and defile and dishonor the man.”

‘THEY WORSHIP ME IN VAIN [their worship is meaningless and worthless, a pretense], TEACHING THE PRECEPTS OF MEN AS DOCTRINES [giving their traditions equal weight with the Scriptures].’ [Is 29:13]

You disregard and neglect the commandment of God, and cling [faithfully] to the tradition of men.”
