Luke 6:1-6 (New Living Translation)
View In My Bible
1
One Sabbath day as Jesus was walking through some grainfields, his disciples broke off heads of wheat, rubbed off the husks in their hands, and ate the grains.
2
But some Pharisees said, "You shouldn't be doing that! It's against the law to work by harvesting grain on the Sabbath."
3
Jesus replied, "Haven't you ever read in the Scriptures what King David did when he and his companions were hungry?
4
He went into the house of God, ate the special bread reserved for the priests alone, and then gave some to his friends. That was breaking the law, too."
5
And Jesus added, "I, the Son of Man, am master even of the Sabbath."
6
On another Sabbath day, a man with a deformed right hand was in the synagogue while Jesus was teaching.
