Why This Word Search Matters

In Matthew 12:1-21, Jesus confronts the Pharisees’ strict interpretation of the Sabbath. His disciples pick grain because they’re hungry, and Jesus heals a man with a shriveled hand—all on the Sabbath day. The religious leaders see rule-breaking, but Jesus sees human need. He reminds them—and us—that mercy matters more than ritual. More than that, this passage affirms Jesus as the fulfillment of Isaiah’s prophecy: God’s chosen servant who brings healing, hope, and justice with gentleness and strength. It’s a beautiful reminder that Jesus came not to crush the weary but to restore them—and to remind us all that love always outranks legalism.
