David, Christ, and the Sabbath
from John 20 Hosted by Rev. Charles G. Dennison
The Pharisees reach for the Old Testament itself to accuse the disciples of breaking the Sabbath, and Christ's response in Mark 2:25-28 uses deliberate hyperbole to assert an authority the Pharisees hadn't reckoned with. David's own example foreshadows Christ's Lordship over both law and Sabbath. What looks like a technical dispute is actually a claim about who Christ is.
