Jesus Is Lord of the Sabbath
1 iAt that time Jesus went through the grainfields on the Sabbath. His disciples were hungry, and they began to jpluck heads of grain and to eat. 2 But when the Pharisees saw it, they said to him, “Look, your disciples are doing kwhat is not lawful to do on the Sabbath.” 3 He said to them, “Have you not read lwhat David did when he was hungry, and those who were with him: 4 how he entered the house of God and ate mthe bread of the Presence, which it was not lawful for him to eat nor for those who were with him, but only for the priests? 5 Or have you not read in the Law nhow on the Sabbath the priests in the temple profane the Sabbath and are guiltless? 6 I tell you, something greater than the temple is here. 7 And if you had known what this means, o‘I desire pmercy, and not sacrifice,’ you would not have condemned the guiltless. 8 For the Son of Man is lord of the Sabbath.”
