CLV(i)
2 Now the Pharisees, perceiving it, say to Him, "Lo! your disciples are doing what is not allowed to be done on a sabbath."
3 Yet He said to them, "Did you not read what David does when he hungers, and those with him:"
4 how he entered into the house of God and they ate the show bread, which he was not allowed to eat, neither those with him, except the priests only?
5 Or did you not read in the law that on the sabbaths the priests in the sanctuary are profaning the sabbath and are faultless?
6 Now I am saying to you that a Greater than the sanctuary is here.
7 Now if you had known what this is: Mercy am I wanting, and not sacrifice-you would not convict the faultless,
8 for the Son of Mankind is Lord of the sabbath."
