Therefore the son of man is Lord also of the sabbath. Meaning himself, who had a power not only to dispense with it, but to abrogate it as he did, with the rest of the rituals of the ceremonial law; [See comments on Matthew 12:8]. So that it did not become them to find fault with what his disciples did, with his leave and approbation.
