Forgot to address this in my last post. The Law of the Lord is perfect. Jesus is perfect. Thus, Jesus
couldn't have been breaking the 4th Commandment. He may have been violating the Pharisees'
poor interpretation of the 4th Commandment, but He ceratinly wasn't breaking God's Law. It was a work of
necessity, the same as pulling an ass or an ox out a ditch. In fact, he even alluded to David's eating the show bread, if I'm not mistaken. This wasn't sin either. So this allusion has no bearing on the validity of Sabbath keeping for New Testament Christians.
