MAN WITH THE WITHERED HAND One Sabbath-day Jesus went into the synagogue, and there he saw a man that had a withered hand. By some means the muscles had lost their power, and he could neither use his hand nor stretch it out.
And the Pharisees watched Jesus, to see if He would heal this man on the Sabbath, that they might bring a charge against Him of breaking the law. They asked Him, "Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath-day?" and He replied by asking who among them, if he had a sheep which had fallen into a pit on the Sabbath-day, would not lay hold on it, and lift it out. "How much then is a man better than a sheep? Wherefore it is lawful to do good on the Sabbath-day."
Then said He to the man, "Stretch for thine hand." And he stretched it forth, and it was made whole and healthy like the other.
- Then the Pharisees went out and held a council against Him, to consider how they might destroy Him; but when Jesus knew it, He withdrew Himself from that part, and great multitudes followed Him, and He healed them all.
