25Jesus replied, “Have you never read what David did when he and his companions were hungry and in need?
26During the high priesthood of Abiathar, he entered the house of God and ate the consecrated bread, which was lawful only for the priests. And he gave some to his companions as well.”
27Then Jesus declared, “The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath.
— Mark 2:25-27
