An ApplicationOnce again we see humanity thinking we're the ones in the right and thinking God is in the wrong. Even if they recognized that Jesus was God, they'd probably still have had the attitude of "you said doing work on the Sabbath was a capital crime and we've made that part of our culture so you don't have the right to tell us you meant something subtly different." Their depravity wasn't in excessive reverence of God's word but in revering their own interpretation of it.

Connect the DotsThey were sort of referencing Exodus 31:14-17, but had their own version. Having our own version of God was explicitly forbidden in EX 20:3 (the first of the 10 Commandments). / Compare MK 3:2 to JN 9:14.
