'Sabbath' in the Bible
At that time Jesus went through the grain fields on a Sabbath. His disciples were hungry, and they began to pick heads of wheat and eat them.
But when the Pharisees saw this they said to him, "Look, your disciples are doing what is against the law to do on the Sabbath."
Or have you not read in the law that the priests in the temple desecrate the Sabbath and yet are not guilty?
A man was there who had a withered hand. And they asked Jesus, "Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath?" so that they could accuse him.
He said to them, "Would not any one of you, if he had one sheep that fell into a pit on the Sabbath, take hold of it and lift it out?
How much more valuable is a person than a sheep! So it is lawful to do good on the Sabbath."
Pray that your flight may not be in winter or on a Sabbath.
Now after the Sabbath, at dawn on the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to look at the tomb.
