Bible Study Wednesday, November 11th at 9am and 7pm

The legal body of authorities, the Pharisees, questioned the actions of the disciples picking grain on the Sabbath. “Why are they doing what is unlawful on the Sabbath?” After asking them to recall the story of when David

and his companions were hungry and ate the temple bread, Jesus said to the Pharisees, “The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath. That is why the Son of Man is lord even of the Sabbath.” (Mk. 2:23-28) What is the deeper meaning of the story? You are invited to participate in the discussion!
