>The Lord desires mercy not sacrifice, and the knowledge of God not burnt offerings; See Hosea 6:6. If we have a good understanding of the mind and will of God then we would not condemn the innocent. Jesus was defending His disciples against the Pharisees who criticized Him for allowing them to pluck ears of corn to eat on the Sabbath as they walked through the fields. Man was not made for the Sabbath but the Sabbath for man, he stated and then added that the Son of Man was also the Lord of the Sabbath(Mark 2:27-28). The Spirit of the Sabbath law was that man rested one day a week from his labour and devoted his time to God, family and mellowing out; On the other hand the Pharisees were all about the letter of the law. A good example of the blindness and evil intent toward the Son of God read Matthew 12:10-12, "…...Wherefore it is lawful to do well on the Sabbath days." This was not a question to them but a statement, it is lawful to do well on the Sabbath!!>
