The Pharisees claimed that the yoke of the law was a blessing, but Jesus taught that the ‘tradition of the elders’ was burdensome and crushing. At the end of Matthew 11 Jesus invited people to forsake their devotion to the traditional understanding of the law and to instead ‘take His yoke upon them and find rest for their souls.’ Now in chapter twelve we see a showdown between Jesus and the Pharisees and these two rival interpretations of the Sabbath, the forth commandment. The Pharisees accuse Jesus and His disciples of being lawbreakers and Jesus masterfully answers their accusation with Scripture. Listen as Pastor Matt begins exploring Jesus brilliant answer which is rooted in His mastery of the Old Testament and His identity as the fulfillment of all its promises.
