5 conflict episodes:

2:18–22: His disciples are criticized for not fasting

Luke 6:6: And it happened, also on another Sabbath that He entered into the synagogue and taught. And there was a man whose right hand was withered.
Charles Spurgeon said this: “Jesus set the example of attending public worship. The synagogues had no divine appointment to authorize them, but in the nature of things it must be right and good to meet for the worship of God on his own day, and therefore Jesus was there. He had nothing to learn, yet he went up to the assembly on the day which the Lord God had hallowed.”
