859 Did Yeshua Let His Disciples Break Sabbath? (Mt. 12:1-8; Hos. 6:6; Mk. 2:27)

Matthew Janzen

I consider both the standard, Christian interpretation of this text as well as the common “Hebrew Roots” interpretation, and then walk through and give an alternate understanding. Hosea 6:6 is paramount here. It must be understood that in the realm of keeping the commandments, sometimes two commands collide and doing one is more important than doing the other.
