Counter-Arguments

The strongest case that this verse does not belong in this theme.

Jesus and the Sabbath

The verse primarily focuses on the actions and intentions of "they" (the observers) and their desire to accuse Jesus, rather than directly showing Jesus keeping, teaching on, or discussing the Sabbath.

Seventh-Day Sabbath

The verse explicitly mentions "the sabbath day" but does not specify that it is the seventh day of the week, nor does it define or elaborate on the concept of a "rest day."
