And the Pharisees and the scribes ask Him, "Why do not Thy disciples walk according to the tradition of the elders, but eat with defiled hands?" read more.

And it came to pass on a sabbath, that He was going through grainfields; and His disciples were plucking and eating the heads of grain, rubbing them with their hands.

how he entered into the house of God, and taking the showbread, ate, and gave to those with him; which it is not lawful to eat, except for the priests only?" And He said to them, "The Son of Man is Lord of the sabbath." And it came to pass on another sabbath, that He entered into the synagogue, and taught. And there was a man there, and his right hand was withered. And the scribes and Pharisees were watching Him, whether He would heal on the sabbath: that they might find how to accuse Him. But He knew their thoughts; and He said to the man having the withered hand, "Arise, and stand forth in the midst." And, rising up, he stood. And Jesus said to them, "I ask you, is it lawful on the sabbath to do good, or to do evil??o save a soul, or to destroy it?" And, looking round upon them all, He said to him, "Stretch forth your hand." And he did so, and his hand was restored. But they were filled with madness, and were conferring one with another as to what they should do to Jesus.
