5. Or have ye not read in the law, how that on the sabbath day the priests in the temple profane the sabbath, and are guiltless?
6. But I say unto you, that one greater than the temple is here.
7. But if ye had known what this meaneth, I desire mercy, and not sacrifice, ye would not have condemned the guiltless.
8. For the Son of man is lord of the sabbath.
