Lord of the Sabbath
6:1Jesus1 was going through the grain fields on2 a Sabbath,3 and his disciples picked some heads of wheat,4 rubbed them in their hands, and ate them.5
Footnotes
- 1 Grk “he”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
- 2 Grk “Now it happened that on.” The introductory phrase ἐγένετο (egeneto, “it happened that”), common in Luke (69 times) and Acts (54 times), is redundant in contemporary English and has not been translated.
- 3 Most later (A C D Θ Ψ [f13] 𝔐 lat) read ἐν σαββάτῳ δευτεροπρώτῳ (en sabbatō deuteroprōtō, “a second-first Sabbath”), while the earlier and better witnesses have simply ἐν σαββάτῳ (𝔓4 א B L W f1 33 579 1241 2542 it sa). The longer reading is most likely secondary, though various explanations may account for it (for discussion, see ).
- 4 Or “heads of grain.” While the generic term στάχυς (stachus) can refer to the cluster of seeds at the top of grain such as barley or wheat, in the NT the term is restricted to wheat (L&N 3.40; 1).
- 5 Grk “picked and ate some heads of grain, rubbing them in their hands.” The participle ψώχοντες (psōchontes) has been translated as a finite verb due to requirements of contemporary English style, and the order of the clauses has been transposed to reflect the logical order, which sounds more natural in English.
