Matthew 12:4-6
1599 Geneva Bible
4 How he went into the house of God, and did eat the [a]showbread, which was not lawful for him to eat, neither for them which were with him, but only for the (A)Priests?
5 Or have ye not read in the Law, how that on the Sabbath days the Priests in the Temple (B)[b]break the Sabbath, and are blameless?
6 But I say unto you, that here is one greater than the Temple.
