Jesus: Lord of the Sabbath
Nov 27, 2022 • Seth Hankee
When it comes to the Sabbath, Jesus is Lord. In Mark 2 Jesus and the religious leaders square off over what is and isn't acceptable for people to do on the Sabbath. The Pharisees were focused on externals and rules and forgot the true purpose of the Sabbath. In Jesus' brief interaction with them, He exposes their hard hearts and reminds them that the Sabbath is made for man, not man for the Sabbath.
