Who has the right to define God's Law? In this explosive confrontation, Jesus makes the ultimate claim: He is Lord of the Sabbath, possessing an authority greater than the Temple itself. This isn't an argument for breaking rules, but a revelation of who He is. He is the one to whom all Scripture points, the gentle Servant who fulfills the Law perfectly for us, delivering the mercy that the Pharisees' legalism could never provide. The Rev. Dr. Keith Haney, Assistant to the President for Missions, Human Care, and Stewardship in the Iowa West District—LCMS, joins the Rev. Dr. Phil Booe to study Matthew 12:1-21. The Gospel of Matthew bridges Old and New Testaments, presenting Jesus as the promised Messiah who fulfills the Law we could never keep and establishes His kingdom of grace for all nations. Written by a tax collector transformed by pure grace, Matthew reveals Christ as the true Son of David and Emmanuel (God with us) who challenges us with the crushing demands of the Law in His Sermon on the Mount to the sweet comfort of the Gospel in His death and resurrection. From royal genealogy to glorious resurrection, this verse-by-verse study proclaims the One who conquered sin, death, and the devil for us, now delivering forgiveness, life, and salvation through Word and Sacrament as He remains with His church always, even to the end of the age. Thy Strong Word, hosted by Rev. Dr. Phil Booe, pastor of St. John Lutheran Church of Luverne, MN, reveals the light of our salvation in Christ through study of God's Word, breaking our darkness with His redeeming light. Each weekday, two pastors fix our eyes on Jesus by considering Holy Scripture, verse by verse, in order to be strengthened in the Word and be equipped to faithfully serve in our daily vocations.

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.

Mark 2:23-28 23 One Sabbath Jesus was going through the grainfields, and as his disciples walked along, they began to pick some heads of grain. 24 The Pharisees said to him, "Look, why are they doing what is unlawful on the Sabbath?" 25 He answered, "Have you never read what David did when he and his companions were hungry and in need? 26 In the days of Abiathar the high priest, he entered the house of God and ate the consecrated bread, which is lawful only for priests to eat. And he also gave some to his companions." 27 Then he said to them, "The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath. 28 So the Son of Man is Lord even of the Sabbath." NIV 84 Lesson Notes God Designed Us for Rest From creation, God modeled rest by ceasing from His work on the seventh day (Genesis 2:3). The Sabbath was meant as a gift, not a burden—a rhythm of rest that restores both body and soul. The Sabbath Is a Provision, Not a Prohibition Jesus reminds us that God's commands are intended for our good. Just as the showbread was given to David as provision, the Sabbath is meant to care for us, not restrict us. Religion Can Complicate What God Made Simple The Pharisees burdened the Sabbath with rules, missing the heart of God's intention. Jesus simplified it: “The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath." Relationship Over Religion True obedience flows out of relationship with God, not rigid rule-keeping. Religion says, “Obey so that God will love me.” Relationship says, “God loves me, therefore I obey.” Jesus Is Our True Rest As “Lord of the Sabbath,” Jesus is more than a teacher of rest—He is our rest. Vacations, sleep, and downtime are good, but only in Christ do we find the kind of rest that nothing else can satisfy. Discussion Questions 1 In what ways have you experienced the effects of being physically, emotionally, or spiritually tired? What are some intentional ways you could practice a "rhythm of rest" each week without turning it into a legalistic checklist? 2 Can you think of areas in your life where you've turned God's good gift into a burden (like the Pharisees did with the Sabbath)? How can you shift your perspective to see God's commands as provision? 3 How does focusing on God's love and relationship with Him transform the way you approach obedience compared to a rule-focused mindset? 4 Jesus offers deep soul-rest beyond sleep or vacations. What would it look like for you to experience that rest in Him this week? What does it practically look like for you to find your true rest in Jesus during a busy week?

apologies for the late release - hope we can still be friends
The Pharisees created extra laws around God's commands to bring the Messiah and restore Israel as a blessing to the world. But when Jesus comes, he shows that he is the fulfillment, authority, and purpose of the law. In this podcast episode, David walks through three stories in Mark where Jesus demonstrates His lordship over the Sabbath and reveals Himself as the long-awaited bridegroom, King, and God of the new creation.
In Mark 2, Jesus makes a claim that is so over the top, so out of all categories, so outrageous that the religious leaders don't even have a word for it. They've called him blasphemous before, but this claim goes beyond their words. In this passage, two incidents are linked together, both having to do with the Sabbath. And what Jesus says is that he's not here to reform religion—he's here to absolutely end religion and replace it with himself. What we're going to see is, 1) on the one hand, the futility of religion and, 2) on the other hand, the finality of Jesus Christ. This sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on February 19, 2006. Series: King's Cross: The Gospel of Mark, Part 1: The Coming of the King. Scripture: Mark 2:23-3:6. Today's podcast is brought to you by Gospel in Life, the site for all sermons, books, study guides and resources from Timothy Keller and Redeemer Presbyterian Church.
