TSNTyndale Study Notes:

6:1-11 Jesus’ conflicts with the religious leaders continued with two controversies over the Sabbath. The law of Moses required Jews to rest on the Sabbath (Exod 20:8-11; Deut 5:13-14), but the Pharisees had forgotten that the real reason for the Sabbath was to benefit human beings.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

ὡς εἰσῆλθεν εἰς τὸν οἶκον τοῦ Θεοῦ

how ˱he˲_came_in into the house ¬the ˱of˲_God

If you made the first part of the quotation in 6:3 a separate sentence, begin a new sentence here. Alternate translation: “He went into the house of God”

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

τὸν οἶκον τοῦ Θεοῦ

the house ¬the ˱of˲_God

Jesus is describing the tabernacle as the house of God. He is speaking as if it were the place where God lived, since God’s presence was there. Alternate translation: “the tabernacle”

Note 2 topic: translate-unknown

τοὺς ἄρτους τῆς Προθέσεως

the bread ˱of˲_the Presence

The phrase the loaves of the presence refers to loaves of bread that were placed on a table in the temple as an offering to God. They represented how the people of Israel lived in the presence of God. Alternate translation: “the loaves that were offered to God” or “the bread that showed God lived among the people”

οὓς οὐκ ἔξεστιν φαγεῖν, εἰ μὴ μόνους τοὺς ἱερεῖς

which not /is/_permitting /to/_eat except ¬not/lest only the priests

It may be helpful to make this a separate sentence. Alternate translation: “The law says that only the priests can eat that bread”
