  • The Lord of the Sabbath is showing his lordship over the Sabbath. 
  • The first part of the question refers to the healing of the man.
  • The second part of the question refers to Jesus and the actions of the Pharisees that follow.
  • Pharisees and Herodians? The opposition against Jesus is spiritual and political.
