Tim Keller | February 8, 2015
Who is Jesus? In Mark 2 and 3, Jesus makes a claim about himself that’s so immense it almost defies categories.
In this text, two incidents are detailed and they both have to do with how we observe the Sabbath day. To understand the magnitude of Jesus’ claim here, we have to unpack the meaning of the entire text and then ask what he’s actually claiming.
Let’s look at the features of the story and learn from each of these: 1) the anger of Jesus, 2) the enemies of Jesus, and 3) the claim of Jesus and what that means for you.
