Matthew 12:4-6
GOD’S WORD Translation
4 Haven’t you read how he went into the house of God and ate [a] the bread of the presence? He and his men had no right to eat those loaves. Only the priests have that right. 5 Or haven’t you read in Moses’ Teachings that on the day of rest—a holy day, the priests in the temple do things they shouldn’t on the day of rest yet remain innocent? 6 I can guarantee that something [b] greater than the temple is here.
