Here’s an excerpt from the blog post.
When David goes to Ahimelech, the priest, he asks for something to eat and ultimately ends up eating the holy bread. The priests set out the bread of the presence every morning before the Lord. Each morning, the new bread would replace the day-old bread and the older bread was given to the priests as part of their portion. David had no right to eat this bread. Jesus tells us as much in Matthew.
Jesus uses this story to reshape how the Pharisees saw the Sabbath. When Jesus' disciples picked heads of grain on the Sabbath, the Pharisees were outraged. Jesus asks, "Have you not heard how David ate the bread that was not lawful for him to eat or how the priests who work on the Sabbath do not profane the Sabbath?" Jesus indicates that it was not "lawful" for David to eat the bread of the presence, but the prevailing attitude of the Jews was that David was spotless. The Jewish understanding was, rightly, that the Messiah would come from the line of David. Jesus is basically saying, "You want to condemn my followers for eating a few pieces of grain on the Sabbath, but you don't condemn David for eating the bread designated only for the priests?" He points out their misunderstanding of the Sabbath and their hypocrisy when he lands on the truth that it is lawful "to do good on the Sabbath."
