2:23 Working on the Rest Day

(Mat. 12:1-8, Luke 6:1-5)

23[ref]And it so happened that Yeshua and his followers passed through some fields of grain on some days of rest. As they went through, they plucked off some heads of grain. 24And some members of the Pharisee party said, “It’s breaking the law to harvest grain on a rest day!”

25And Yeshua replied, “You’ve read yourselves what David did when him and his men were hungry. 26[ref]They went into God’s tent and ate the holy bread representing the presence of God. Only the priests were allowed to eat that, and yet David even gave some to his men!27And he told the Pharisees, “The days of rest were created for people, not people for the rest days. 28So I, humanity’s child, have authority also over the day of rest.


23And it_became him on the days_of_rest to_be_passing_through through the grainfields, and the apprentices/followers of_him began to_be_making way, plucking the heads_of_grain.
24And the Farisaios_party were_saying to_him:
Behold, why they_are_doing on_the days_of_rest what it_is_ not _permitting?
25And he_is_saying to_them:
You_all_ never _read what Dawid/(Dāvid) did, when he_had need and he and the ones with him hungered?
26How he_came_in into the house of_ the _god during Abiathar/(ʼEvəyātār) the_chief_priest, and ate the bread of_the presence, which it_is_ not _permitting to_eat except not/lest the priests, and he_gave even to_the ones being with him?
, 27And he_was_saying to_them:
The day_of_rest became because_of the person, and not the person because_of the day_of_rest.
28So_then the son of_ the _man is master also of_the day_of_rest.
