Jesus Is Lord of the Sabbath

Luke 6

1 Now a it happened 1 on the second Sabbath after the first that He went through the grainfields. And His disciples plucked the heads of grain and ate them, rubbing them in their hands. 2 And some of the Pharisees said to them, "Why are you doing b what is not lawful to do on the Sabbath?" 3 But Jesus answering them said, "Have you not even read this, c what David did when he was hungry, he and those who were with him: 4 "how he went into the house of God, took and ate the showbread, and also gave some to those with him, d which is not lawful for any but the priests to eat?" 5 And He said to them, "The Son of Man is also Lord of the Sabbath."
