4 how he entered the house of God, and (A)they ate the [a]consecrated bread, which was not lawful for him to eat nor for those with him, but for the priests alone? 5 Or have you not read in the Law that on the Sabbath the priests in the temple [b]violate the Sabbath, and yet are innocent? 6 But I say to you that something (B)greater than the temple is here.
