# General Information:

In verses 3 and 4, the author gives background information about the Pharisees' washing traditions in order to show why the Pharisees were bothered that Jesus's disciples did not wash their hands before eating. If you need to reorder the events in these verses, it may be helpful to use a verse bridge, as in the UDB. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/writing-background]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/translate-versebridge]])
