In this chapter, Jesus teaches the true meaning of the “Sabbath” and how it is to bring glory to God, not to be used as a religious weapon. The hostility towards Jesus was starting to grow.
Before we undergo any further study of this chapter, it would be helpful to understand the concept of the “Sabbath”. According to the fourth commandment (Exodus 20:8), the Sabbath was set aside as one day in seven to cease from labor and take a rest from all unnecessary activity. Exodus 31:15 ...read more

Are our ideas of exclusive and inclusive very different to God's? Let's begin in Deuteronomy 23.
Are our ideas of inclusion and exclusion very different from God’s? How exclusive was crop ownership? Did Jesus rob a grainfield on the Sabbath or did the law require that some of it be available to hungry passers by? For whom did Jesus' death atone? Let’s begin in Deuteronomy 23. Who could ...read more
The Sabbath is to be Holy as unto the Lord. But what does that mean for the people of the New Covenant? Could doing the works of God be the best way to honor the Lord.
