Commentary on Matthew 12:7
Theological / DevotionalMercy, and not sacrifice. See on ch. 9:13.
Condemned the guiltless. The reference here is to the disciples. All too frequently ignorance of the true import of Scripture — in other words, false concepts of truth — and false pride, coupled with jealousy of those who know and obey the truth, lead to criticism and persecution (see on ch. 5:10-12).
