3 But He said to them, “Have you not read awhat David did when he was hungry, he and those who were with him:
4 how he entered the house of God and ate athe showbread which was not lawful for him to eat, nor for those who were with him, bbut only for the priests?
5 Or have you not read in the alaw that on the Sabbath the priests in the temple1 profane the Sabbath, and are blameless?
7 But if you had known what this means, a‘I desire mercy and not sacrifice,’ you would not have condemned the guiltless.
