Sabbath rules… or Jesus?

In Part 1 of this episode, we’re looking at a powerful truth: human need in the service of God is greater than legalistic rule-keeping. And even in Jesus’ day, the Jewish leaders recognized that at times, devotion to God required setting aside strict traditions. But in Matthew 12, the tension comes to the surface. The Pharisees accuse the disciples of breaking the Sabbath, yet the real issue isn’t about Sabbath rules at all—it’s about Jesus Himself. They refused to accept that He is God.
