But ye say, If a man shall say to his father or mother, It is Corban, that is to say, a gift, by whatsoever thou mightest be profited by me; he shall be free.
Corban is something dedicated as an offering for the priesthood.
Modern sabbath commanders make a sabbath of their own with preordained exceptions to work on it, in a 24/7 modern industrial and market economy and professional standing military.
And what they do when they break their sabbath by working, is give whatsoever they mightest profit by it, to the offering plate: It is Corban.
And so they shall be free to work on their sabbath days.
Simple economics shows a greater income for the ministers, rather than not preaching a sabbath, or actually preaching the Lord's Sabbath.
First preach a sabbath by commandment, and then give free exceptions to work on that sabbath, so long as the profit is Corban to the offering plate.
No doubt, the Pharisees of old could have applauded such ingenuity, except for the fact they would be condemning such profaning of a sabbath by working on it.
No man can say the Pharisees EVER gave exceptions for working on their sabbath days, not even to make the profits by it Corban to themselves.
