DE L’HOMME EST MAÎTRE DU SABBAT
FIRST READING ISAIAH 38:1-6,21-22,7-8 The Lord hears Hezekiah's prayer and heals him

The prophet Isaiah son of Amoz came and said to him, ‘The Lord says this, “Put your affairs in order, for you are going to die, you will not live.”’ Hezekiah turned his face to the wall and addressed this prayer to the Lord, ‘Ah, Lord, remember, I beg you, how I have behaved faithfully and with sincerity of heart in your presence and done what is right in your eyes.’ And Hezekiah shed many tears.....

GOSPEL MATTHEW 12:1-8 The Son of Man is master of the sabbath
Jesus took a walk one sabbath day through the cornfields. His disciples were hungry and began to pick ears of corn and eat them. The Pharisees noticed it and said to him, ‘Look, your disciples are doing something that is forbidden on the sabbath.’ But he said to them, ‘Have you not read what David did when he and his followers were hungry – how he went into the house of God and how they ate the loaves of offering which neither he nor his followers were allowed to eat, but which were for the priests alone? Or again, have you not read in the Law that on the sabbath day the Temple priests break the sabbath without being blamed for it? Now here, I tell you, is something greater than the Temple. And if you had understood the meaning of the words: What I want is mercy, not sacrifice, you would not have condemned the blameless. For the Son of Man is master of the sabbath.’ Reflections

Lecture du livre du prophète Isaïe Lectures
En ces jours-là, le roi Ézékias souffrait d’une maladie mortelle.
Le prophète Isaïe, fils d’Amots, vint lui dire: « Ainsi parle le Seigneur:
Prends des dispositions pour ta maison, car tu vas mourir, tu ne guériras pas.»
Ézékias se tourna vers le mur et fit cette prière au Seigneur: « Ah !
Seigneur, souviens-toi ! J’ai marché en ta présence, dans la loyauté et
d’un cœur sans partage, et j’ai fait ce qui est bien à tes yeux.».....
