The sabbath law prescribed a weekly day of rest and celebration. The purpose of the law was for our good, and was meant to be a system of values and priorities. When Jesus gleans on the Sabbath, which was allowed by the law, the religious leaders are filled with murderous rage. This is because the kind of grace that changes lives also exposes religious impotence and sick attitudes, challenges assumptions, and threatens self-justification.
