# General Information:
|
|
|
|
In verses 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' disciples did not wash their hands before eating. This information can be reordered in order to make it easier to understand, as in the UDB. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/writing-background]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/translate-versebridge]])

# They saw
|
|
|
|
"The Pharisees and the scribes saw"
|
|
|
|
# that is, unwashed
|
|
|
|
The word "unwashed" explains why the disciples' hands were defiled. It can be expressed in active form. AT: "that is, with hands that they had not washed" or "that is, that they had not washed their hands" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-active]])

# elders

|
Jewish elders were leaders in their communities and were also judges for the people.
|
|
|
|
# copper vessels
|
|
|
|
"copper kettles" or "metal containers"
|
|
|
|
# the couches upon which they eat
|
|
|
|
"benches" or "beds." At that time, the Jews would recline when eating.
