The work of Jesus is very different from the work of this world. This is seen in Luke 13:10–17. Jesus heals a woman. He says, “Woman, you are set free from your infirmity.” The synagogue leader is angry because Jesus “worked” on the Sabbath. Jesus then criticizes the religious leaders for having untied their animals while he was willing to untie a woman. This is true: what is work for one is not work for another. What was work for the Pharisees was not work for Jesus.
