Gospel of Matthew - Matthew 12:1-13 - Jesus, as the Son of Man, is Lord of the Sabbath From Eating to Healing - Prog 41
Description
Our study In Matthew chapter 12 begins in verse 1 with Dr. Mitchell here on the Unchanging Word Bible Broadcast.
In the first 13 verses, Dr. Mitchell speaks to us concerning our Lord Jesus Christ. Jesus has to rebuke the Pharisees for their critical attitude toward Jesus' disciples who were hungry and were picking and eating grain on the Sabbath day.
Matthew records the words of the savior who needed to remind these Pharisees of the O.T. Scripture 1 Sam. 21:3-6. David the King did that was not lawful to do when he was hungry. He and his men ate consecrated bread.
Our Lord Jesus is Lord of the Sabbath.
Dr. Mitchell centers our attention on the real purpose of the sabbath. There was a distinct difference between the Pharisees and Jesus as to it's purpose.
Let's turn to Matthew 12 with Dr. Mitchell.
