Mark 7:1 Douay-Rheims

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

Jerome (attributed)

Patristic

Mystically, again, the disciples eating with unwashed hands signifies the future fellowship of the Gentiles with the Apostles. The cleansing and washing of the Pharisees is barren; but the fellowship of the Apostles, though without washing, has stretched out its branches as far as the sea.
