# it cannot go into his heart
Here "heart" is a metonym for a person's inner being or mind. Here Jesus means that food does not affect a person's character. AT: "it cannot go into his inner being" or "it cannot go into his mind" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy]])
# Do you not see that whatever enters ... latrine?
Jesus uses this question to teach his disciples something they should already know. It can be expressed as a statement. AT: "Whatever enters ... latrine." (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-rquestion]])
# because it
Here "it" refers to what goes into a person; that is, what a person eats.
# all foods clean
It may be helpful to explain clearly what this phrase means. AT: "all foods clean, meaning that people can eat any food without God considering the eater defiled" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-explicit]])
