Genesis 9
8 Then God said to Noah and to his sons with him: 9 “I now establish my covenant with you and with your descendants after you 10 and with every living creature that was with you—the birds, the livestock and all the wild animals, all those that came out of the ark with you—every living creature on earth.
11 I establish my covenant with you: Never again will all life be cut off by the waters of a flood; never again will there be a flood to destroy the earth.”
12 And God said, “This is the sign of the covenant I am making between me and you and every living creature with you, a covenant for all generations to come: 13 I have set my rainbow in the clouds, and it will be the sign of the covenant between me and the earth. 14 Whenever I bring clouds over the earth and the rainbow appears in the clouds, 15 I will remember my covenant between me and you and all living creatures of every kind. Never again will the waters become a flood to destroy all life. 16 Whenever the rainbow appears in the clouds, I will see it and remember the everlasting covenant between God and all living creatures of every kind on the earth.”
17 So God said to Noah, “This is the sign of the covenant I have established between me and all life on the earth.” Never argue with an idiot. They will drag you down to their level, then beat you with experience.

1 At that time Jesus went through the grainfields on the Sabbath. His disciples were hungry and began to pick some heads of grain and eat them. 2 When the Pharisees saw this, they said to him, “Look! Your disciples are doing what is unlawful on the Sabbath.”
(harvesting and preparing food is against the Sabbath laws found in the Holy Bible not just the Talmud) This is VERY significant.
- Matthew states that those going through the grain field are Christ's disciples.
- The Pharisees also describe them as Christ's disciples.
- Jesus does not challenge the correct statement of the Pharisees.
"Look! Your disciples are doing what is unlawful on the Sabbath."
- This activity, which Jesus defended was against OT law.
- Also note, Jesus compared the sabbath to the ceremonial law. (in context)
Therefore, what was Jesus teaching about the sabbath?
Certainly NOT as you and Pharisees teach, whos side you have chosen over Christs
