Matthew 15:10 is the tenth verse in the fifteenth chapter of the Gospel of Matthew in the New Testament.

In the original Greek according to Westcott-Hort for this verse is:

Καὶ προσκαλεσάμενος τὸν ὄχλον, εἶπεν αὐτοῖς, Ἀκούετε καὶ συνίετε.

In the King James Version of the Bible the text reads:

And he called the multitude, and said unto them, Hear, and understand:

The New International Version translates the passage as:

Jesus called the crowd to him and said, "Listen and understand.

Analysis

For "hear" Mark has, "hear Me all of you." (Mark 7:14). These words are intended to grab their attention, by saying, hear Me, and not the Pharisees; "and understand," that is, leaving your former errors, be attentive to My true doctrine.[1]
