V.1-8 This story has a meaning. The Lord, having been rejected, is telling that the test is finished. He had presented Himself to His people Israel and they had rejected Him. Jesus refers to the Old Testament scriptures where David, rejected by King Saul, eats the holy bread which only the priests were to eat. The two incidents are through rejection — David and the Son of David, Jesus. The whole Jewish system of the Old Testament, including the Sabbath day, was passing away. One greater than the Sabbath had come! But they would not have Him. One greater than the temple was there (v. 6) but they did not recognize Him.
V.10-13 Another proof that the Sabbath was being set aside.
V.15 He had the opposite in His heart — He healed all who came to Him.
V.22-30 A man blind and dumb — a clear picture of Israel before God. An awful accusation the unbelievers make against the Lord Jesus, thus proving their true condition. Jesus proves how absurd their argument was — Satan would not destroy his own kingdom.
