This week we will be continuing our 21 week look at Jesus and the Law with week 2 in the section titled Jesus as Lawbreaker from the devotional Where True Love Is.

Day 23: Jesus Broke the Sabbath Repeatedly

The Bible passage for Day 23 is: John 5:16-18

And this was why the Jews were persecuting Jesus, because he was doing these things on the Sabbath. But Jesus answered them, “My Father is working until now, and I am working.” This was why the Jews were seeking all the more to kill him, because not only was he breaking the Sabbath, but he was even calling God his own Father, making himself equal with God. (John 5:16-18 ESV)
