Mk 7:15b ... "but the things that come out from the man are the things that defile the man."

The second phrase has these 11 dialog words ... alla ta ek tou anthrōpou ekporeuomena estin ta koinounta ton anthrōpon ("but the things out from the man coming out are the things that defile the man").

The 11 dialog words from Jesus are top down. Jesus doesn't immediately say what these "things going out" are. That will be explained to the disciples in the next parable of this story.
