Respuesta rápida: no.

Aquí está el pasaje que puede hacer que surja esta pregunta:

17 But Jesus answered them, “My Father is still working, so I am working, too.” 18 For this cause therefore the Jews sought all the more to kill him, because he not only broke the Sabbath, but also called God his own Father, making himself equal with God. John 5:17-18WEB

Jesús estaba "bajo la ley" (Gal. 4:4), y nunca violó la ley (Mat. 5:17-20). De lo contrario, no se le podría haber descrito como "sin pecado" (1 Ped. 2:22), porque "el pecado es la transgresión de la ley" (1 Juan 3:4). Por lo tanto, podemos entender esta "ruptura" del Sábado ya sea como:

1. una "ruptura" de las tradiciones farisaicas de la "valla" con respecto al Sabbath (tradiciones que no formaban parte de la ley bíblica), y/o
2. una prioridad de "hacer el bien" sobre "no hacer el trabajo" (Éxodo 31:13-14) que era (según el propio Jesús) implícitamente lícito según la ley bíblica:

10 And behold, there was a man with a withered hand. They asked him, “Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath day?” so that they might accuse him. 11 He said to them, “What man is there among you who has one sheep, and if this one falls into a pit on the Sabbath day, won’t he grab on to it and lift it out? 12 Of how much more value then is a man than a sheep! Therefore it is lawful to do good on the Sabbath day.” Matthew 12:10-12WEB
