Lord of the Sabbath
Manila Bulletin
|July 18, 2025
Jesus invokes two principles in the observance of the Sabbath, the day of rest: God's mercy towards his creatures, and his divine authority as the Son of God and Lord of the Sabbath.
-
The first principle is grounded on mercy and preservation of life, a response to a human need that is weightier than the Pharisee’s interpretation of the Law.
In fact, the Torah provides that to assuage immediate hunger, one is allowed to eat grapes in a neighbor’s vineyard (but not collecting them in baskets), and to pluck ears of grain from a neighbor’s field (but not to sickle) (Dt 23:25-26).
The second principle shows Jesus as someone higher than David who allowed his hungry men to eat from sanctuary bread intended only for the priests.
