Matthew Poole and continuators on Mark 2:28

28 Therefore the son of man is Lord also of the sabbath.

We had also this History in Matth. 12.3. In our Notes uppon which we considered all those passages relating to it, which this Evangelist hath, for the Explication of which I refer my Reader thither. It referreth to a Story, 1 Sam. 21.1. where Ahimelech, is said, to have been the High Priest, Abiathar was his Son, as appeareth by 1 Sam. 22.20. who escaped the Slaughter of his Fathers Family, upon the information of Do[illegible: 1 letter]g the Edomite, and followed David. It was in the latter end of the Priesthood of Ahimelech, and probably Abiathar assisted his Father in the Execution of the Office, and so suddenly succeeded, that Mark calls it the time of his Priest-hood. Besides that those words [non-Latin text not transcribed] do notnecessarily signify in the Days of Abiathar, as we Translate it, no more then [non-Latin text not transcribed] signifies in the carrying into Captivity, but about the time, or near the time which it was, for Ahimelech was presently after it (possibly within a few days) cut off, as we Read, 1 Sam. 22.17, 18. and Abiathar was a more Noted Man, than his Father Ahimelech, enjoying the Priesthood more then forty years, and being the Person who was made famous by carrying the Ephod to David.
