0301004 Man’s hand healed on Sabbath – Matthew 12:9-14, Mark 3:1-6, Luke 6:6-11, A.D. 27 Towns in Galilee
And it also happened on another Sabbath, having departed there, he went and entered again into their synagogue and taught. And behold there was a man with a withered right hand. And the scribes and the Pharisees watched him to see whether he would heal him on the Sabbath day, that they might find an accusation against him. And they asked him, “Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath day?” that they might accuse him. And 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, will not he get it, and lift it out? Of how much more value than is a man than a sheep! Therefore, it is lawful to do good on the Sabbath day.”
But he knew their thoughts. Then he told and said to the man who had his hand withered, “Stand up, rise up, and stand in the middle.” And he arose and stood. And then Jesus said to them, “I ask you, is it lawful on the Sabbath day to do good, or to do harm? To save a life, or to kill it?” But they were silent. And when he had looked around at them all with anger, being grieved at the hardening of their hearts, he said to the man, “Stretch out your hand,” and he did. He stretched it out, and his hand was restored whole, just like the other. But the Pharisees were filled with rage, and went out, and immediately talked with one another about what they might do to Jesus and conspired with the Herodians against him, how they might destroy him.
