The end of Matthew 11 gives us the beautiful invitation from Jesus that we can come to him to find rest for our souls. As we turn to Matthew 12:1-21, we also continue with the theme of rest because our author turns our attention to a series of moments that happened on the Sabbath. Sabbath laws developed over time, and what Jesus encountered was well beyond anything found in God’s Law, but the thoughts of Rabbis in the Halakah, interpreting and expanding what it meant to observe the Sabbath properly. Those interpretations had cultivated a rigid posture to what Sabbath was all about.


Jesus challenged those interpretations, though. In fact, he claimed to be “The Lord of the Sabbath” himself. On Sunday we will take time to see the history of Sabbath in the Old Testament, in Judaism, and throughout church history. We will see what true rest is offered to us by Jesus, and how that compares and contrasts with the concept of Sabbath and seek to understand more clearly what it is that God’s people are called to.
