Another example of Jesus still in relationship with Pharisees - he goes to dinner on the sabbath at one of their leaders of the Pharisees (14: 1) Again the issue of when rules should apply -- as in, is it OK to heal (that would be considered working) on the sabbath. Jesus has a pretty clear answer; the Pharisees either can't comment or won't comment (14: 5-6).
The parable of the great dinner when the invited guests would not come reminds us how many excuses we make to not participate in what Christ has prepared for us.
Jesus again reminds us of the high cost of discipleship (14: 25-33). Does your discipleship seem costly to you?
