:P Yeah the juxtaposition of sins and physical disability is unpleasant!
I wonder - might he be saying - Don't even worry about this stuff they have called sin, like feeding yourself on the Sabbath.
Oh and you can walk too! :D
I doubt many theologians would spring for that, but I wonder... ::)

There is the style they wrote this down in, and what has been lost in translation over time.
Like in 2:13 he goes to Levi and says to follow him. Well you could make of that he had powerful pursuasion powers. Or you might wonder what all went on in that conversation. These verses are like zip files, each with a story inside we can only surmise.
Shakesthecoffecan:
Now beigining in 2:18 it describes the followers of John (I am assuming the Baptist) and the Pharisees were fasting. So there was an organization of the followers of John. I wonder how that organizaton played into the followers of Jesus and the early church?
I like the example he gave of David taking the preiests bread to feed the hungry. It is a very good analogy.
injest:
may I go back to something we mentioned in Chapter 1??
