Matthew 12

⁴ He entered the house of God, and he and his companions ate the consecrated bread, which was not lawful for them to eat, but only for the priests.

⁵ Or haven’t you read in the Law that on the Sabbath the priests in the temple break the Sabbath and yet are innocent?

⁶ But I tell you that One greater than the temple is here.

⁸ For the Son of Man is Lord of the Sabbath.”
