O Senhor do sábado

(Mt 12.1-8; Mc 2.23-28)

Certo sábado, atravessando Jesus e os seus discípulos umas searas, iam arrancando espigas de trigo, que esfregavam entre as mãos para comer os grãos. Alguns fariseus, porém, disseram: “Porque estão a fazer o que não é permitido no dia de sábado?”

Ao que Jesus respondeu: “Vocês não leram o que o rei David fez quando ele e os companheiros estavam com fome, como entrou na casa de Deus, comeu e deu a comer também aos seus companheiros os pães da Presença, que apenas aos sacerdotes era permitido comer?[a] Jesus acrescentou “Eu, o Filho do Homem, sou o Senhor do próprio sábado.”
