Luke 6:1-5

Chapter 6

1

One Sabbath, Jesus was walking through a grain field, and his disciples began to pick heads of grain, crushing them in their hands to eat.

2

Some of the Pharisees asked them:

     “Why do you do what is forbidden on the Sabbath?”

3

Then Jesus spoke up and asked them:

       “Have you never read what David did when he and his men were hungry?
4

He entered the house of God, took and ate the bread of the offering, and even gave some to his men, even though only priests are allowed to eat that bread.”

5

And Jesus added:

     “The Son of Man is Lord and rules over the Sabbath.”
