Not So Black & White


Mark 2:23-28 // The Pharisees are accusing Jesus of being unlawful by taking His disciples through the grainfield during the sabbath. Jesus is not combative, nor does He try to win an argument with His response. In this passage Jesus doesn't hold back in sharing who He really is and where our activation in His Kingdom will lead.


 

One Sabbath he was going through the grainfields, and as they made their way, his disciples began to pluck heads of grain.24 And the Pharisees were saying to him, “Look, why are they doing what is not lawful on the Sabbath?”25 And he said to them, “Have you never read what David did, when he was in need and was hungry, he and those who were with him:26 how he entered the house of God, in the time of Abiathar the high priest, and ate the bread of the Presence, which it is not lawful for any but the priests to eat, and also gave it to those who were with him?”27 And he said to them, “The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath.

Mark 2:23-28


Now then, what do you have on hand? Give me five loaves of bread, or whatever is here.”4 And the priest answered David, “I have no common bread on hand, but there is holy bread—if the young men have kept themselves from women.”5 And David answered the priest, “Truly women have been kept from us as always when I go on an expedition. The vessels of the young men are holy even when it is an ordinary journey. How much more today will their vessels be holy?”6 So the priest gave him the holy bread, for there was no bread there but the bread of the Presence, which is removed from before the Lord, to be replaced by hot bread on the day it is taken away.
