38 But the Pharisee was surprised when he noticed that Jesus did not first wash before the meal.
39 Then the Lord said to him, “Now then, you Pharisees clean the outside of the cup and dish, but inside you are full of greed and wickedness. 40 You foolish people! Did not the one who made the outside make the inside also? 41 But now as for what is inside you—be generous to the poor, and everything will be clean for you.
Provided Mr. No Hand Washing is also giving generously to the poor, I guess he is on point. OTOH, Jesus was clearly making a point about wickedness, not germs.
That is fascinating.
I Wondered about the context, and looked it up.

Also, ew.
I agree. It was about inner qualities and not anything physical.
