I. The Sabbath Day
2173
The Gospel reports many incidents when Jesus was accused of violating the
sabbath law. But Jesus never fails to respect the holiness of this
day.98 He gives this law its authentic and authoritative
interpretation: “The sabbath was made for man, not man for the
sabbath.”99 With compassion, Christ declares the sabbath for doing
good rather than harm, for saving life rather than killing.100 The
sabbath is the day of the Lord of mercies and a day to honor God.101
“The Son of Man is lord even of the sabbath.”102
