The most exhausting activity on this earth is to attempt getting into heaven through human achievement. In this passage we see that Jesus provides rest from the never ending race of works based salvation. We will see four narrative connections that demonstrate Jesus’s authority to provide rest.

1. The Disciples’ Needful Situation (vs. 23)
2. The Pharisees’ Ignorant Assumption (vs. 24)
3. The Scripture’s Gracious Provision (vs. 25-26)
