SEV Biblia, Chapter 15:19
Porque del corazn salen los malos pensamientos: muertes, adulterios, fornicaciones, hurtos, falsos testimonios, maledicencias.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Matthew 15:19
Verse 19. Out of the heart] In the heart of an unregenerate man, the principles and seeds of all sin are found. And iniquity is always conceived in the heart before it be spoken or acted. Is there any hope that a man can abstain from outward sin till his heart, that abominable fountain of corruption, be thoroughly cleansed? I trow not. Evil thoughts] dialogismoi ponhroi, wicked dialogues-for in all evil surmisings the heart holds a conversation, or dialogue, with itself. For fonoi, murders, two MSS. have fqonoi, envyings, and three others have both. Envy and murder are nearly allied: the former has often led to the latter.
Blasphemies] I have already observed, chap. ix. 3, that the verb blasfhmew, when applied to men, signifies to speak INJURIOUSLY of their persons, characters, &c., and, when applied to God, it means to speak IMPIOUSLY of his nature, works, &c.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 19. For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts , etc.] Of God, of Christ, of the Spirit, of fellow creatures, and of all sorts of wickedness. The thoughts of sin are evil, are to be hated, forsaken, and for which men are accountable to God. All wicked imaginations, carnal reasonings, lustful desires, and malicious contrivances, are here included; which take their rise from, and are devised, and forged, in the corrupt heart of man. Murders ; inveterate hatred of mens persons, malice prepense, schemes to take away life, all angry and wrathful words, and actual effusion of mans blood. Adulteries ; uncleanness committed between married persons, both in thought, and deed: fornications ; unlawful copulations of persons in a single state: thefts ; taking away from others by force or fraud, what is their right and property: false witness : swearing falsely, or exhibiting a false testimony to the hurt of his neighbour, either his name, person, or estate: blasphemies ; evil speakings of God or men. To which Mark adds covetousness; a greedy and insatiable desire after the things of the world, or the neighbours goods: wickedness; doing hurt and mischief to fellow creatures: deceit; in words and actions, in trade and conversation: lasciviousness; all manner of uncleanness, and unnatural lusts: an evil eye; of envy and covetousness: the vitiosity, or corruption of nature, is, by the Jews f901 , called y[ [r , the evil eye: pride; in heart and life, in dress and gesture; and foolishness; expressed in talk and conduct.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 10-20 - Christ shows that the defilement they ought to fear, was not from what entered their mouths as food, but from what came out of their mouths which showed the wickedness of their hearts. Nothing will last in the soul but the regenerating graces of the Holy Spirit; and nothing shoul be admitted into the church but what is from above; therefore, whoeve is offended by a plain, seasonable declaration of the truth, we shoul not be troubled at it. The disciples ask to be better taught as to thi matter. Where a weak head doubts concerning any word of Christ, a upright heart and a willing mind seek for instruction. It is the hear that is desperately wicked, Jer 17:9, for there is no sin in word of deed, which was not first in the heart. They all come out of the man and are fruits of that wickedness which is in the heart, and is wrough there. When Christ teaches, he will show men the deceitfulness an wickedness of their own hearts; he will teach them to humbl themselves, and to seek to be cleansed in the Fountain opened for sin and uncleanness.

Vincent's NT Word Studies
19. Out of the heart. Compare Plato. "For all good and evil, whether in the body or in human nature, originates, as he declared, in the soul, and overflows from thence, as from the head into the eyes; and therefore, if the head and body are to be well, you must begin by curing the soul. That is the first thing" ("Charmides," 157).Thoughts (dialogismoi). Lit., reasonings (compare Mark ix. 33, Rev.), or disputings (Philip. ii. 14), like the captious questioning of the Pharisees about washing hands.
