Jesus seems to get questioned a lot about doing things on the Sabbath that are being done to help others. It's amazing how misconstrued things had gotten by then. It's as if they just wanted you to sit around and not even breathe...that may be a little dramatic but that is how it seems that they acted.
The one thing that stood out today was verse 14. "Do not withhold discipline from a child; if you strike him with a rod, he will not die." We have lost this over time and you can see it in how people act.

That is interesting. In my version, it says that they were humiliated because he was calling them out for what sounds like laziness or uncaring behaviors. The story about the narrow door is a little confusing and I don't quite understand it. Maybe about belief and that is the narrow door or road less traveled.
Be careful not to be gluttonous. Do not seek riches, they are fleeting. Some of these I am not getting today. Discipline your children. Do not envy sinners. Listen to your father and do not despise your mother. Give your heart to God. Do not succumb to drunken behaviors.
