This chapter starts with Herod in charge on a throne while Peter is on death row in a prison, but it ends with Peter out of prison and Herod off his throne and eaten by worms.

In Mark 7:1–23, Jesus teaches that true spiritual defilement comes not from external circumstances or ceremonial uncleanness, but from the sinful human heart.
