Pseudo-Chrysostom, on Mark 7:1

“And there assembled together unto him the Pharisees and some of the scribes, coming from Jerusalem.”

“(Vict. Ant. e Cat. in Marc.) Or else it may be said, that the Pharisees taught young persons, that if a man offered a gift in expiation of the injury done to his father or mother, he was free from sin, as having given to God the gifts which are owed to a parent; and in saying this, they did not allow parents to be honoured.”
