Mark 7:21

For from within, from the heart of men, come forth:
[Jesus had explained the first part of the statement in verse 15 – that it is not food that enters a person that defiles them, see verses 18-19. Now he explains what the second half of the statement means, what it is that defiles. It is the evil that comes out of a person's heart and mind that defiles them. It is a list of thirteen points. The first seven points are all in the plural, suggesting that they are repeated actions. The last six are in the singular.]
evil thoughts,
illicit sex (fornication) [plural],
[The Greek word porneia is used here, and the root word means "to sell oneself into slavery." Our word "pornography" is a compound word made up of this very word porneia and grafo, which means "something written or drawn," i.e., a description either in text or graphically of someone selling themselves sexually. The word porneia is often translated as fornication and is a general term for all sexual impurity. When the words fornication and adultery are mentioned in the same list, fornication refers to an unmarried person who has sexual relations with others, while adultery refers to a married person who is unfaithful in their marriage.]
theft [plural],
murder [plural],
