Deu 23:24 When thou comest into thy neighbour's vineyard, then
thou mayest eat grapes thy fill at thine own pleasure; but thou shalt not put
any in thy vessel.
Deu 23:25 When thou comest into the standing corn of thy
neighbour, then thou mayest pluck the ears with thine hand; but thou shalt not
move a sickle unto thy neighbour's standing corn.
Luk 6:1 And it came to pass on the second sabbath after the first, that he
went through the corn fields; and his disciples plucked the ears of corn, and
did eat, rubbing them in their hands.
Luk 6:2 And certain of the Pharisees said unto them, Why do ye that which is not lawful to do on the sabbath days?
Luk 6:2 And certain of the Pharisees said unto them, Why do ye that which is not lawful to do on the sabbath days?
They plucked the corn, rubbing them in their hands to remove the chaff from
the barley or wheat corn. Being the sabbath they were on their way to a
synagogue or the temple which was nearby. They plucked the corn and were keeping
the law in Deut. 23:25. The Pharisees were looking for some offense so as to
accuse him. The laws were quite strict and the penalty quite severe if they were not
kept. Jesus broke no law. He is Lord of the Sabbath. The Bible says he brought
grace and truth.
John 1:14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld
his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and
truth.
We do not like to hear of the hard things of the law, but they will be our
judge if we are not under the safety and salvation of Jesus Christ who brought
grace and truth. He took our punishment that the law required for our sins: his
blood was poured out for our sins. Jesus keep me under your blood. Wash me of
all sins and receive me at your coming. You are my atonement for sins.
