+++As Jesus was passing through a
field of grain on the sabbath,
his disciples began to make a path
while picking the heads of grain.
At this the Pharisees said to him,
“Look, why are they doing what is
unlawful on the sabbath?”
He said to them,
“Have you never read what David did
when he was in need and he and his
companions were hungry?
How he went into the house of God
when Abiathar was high priest
and ate the bread of offering that
only the priests could lawfully eat,
and shared it with his companions?”
Then he said to them,
“The sabbath was made for man, not
man for the sabbath.
That is why the Son of Man is lord
even of the sabbath.”

So there remains a Sabbath rest for the people of God. For the one who has entered His rest has himself also rested from his works, as God did from His.
