Luke 6:1-5

Jesus was walking through the grain fields on a Sabbath day. His disciples picked some of the grain as they went along. They cleaned it by rubbing it in their hands, and ate it.

Some of the Pharisees said, `Why do your disciples do what is not right on the Sabbath day?"

Jesus answered them, `Have you not read what David did? He and his men were hungry.

He went into God's house. Some bread was there for God. But David took the bread and ate it. He also gave some of it to the men who were with him. Only the priests have the right to eat that bread.'

Jesus said to them, `The Son of Man rules over the Sabbath day.'
