# Connecting Statement:
|
|
|
|
Jesus begins to scold the Pharisees by asking them a question.
|
|
|
|
# He said to them
|
|
|
|
"Jesus said to the Pharisees"
|
|
|
|
# Have you never read what David did
|
|
|
|
This question ends in 2:26. Jesus is reminding the scribes and Pharisees of something David did on the Sabbath. If this rhetorical question is translated as a statement or a command, then the question mark in 2:26 should become a period. Alternate translation: "You have read what David did" or "Remember what you read about what David did" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-rquestion]])

# read what David did
|
|
|
|
Jesus refers to reading about David in the Old Testament. This can be translated showing the implicit information. Alternate translation: "read in the scriptures what David did" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-explicit]])
