A Man with a Withered Hand

Matthew 12

⁹ _i Now when He had departed from there, He went into their synagogue. ¹⁰ And behold, there was a man who had a withered hand. And they asked Him, saying, _j "Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath?" - that they might accuse Him. ¹¹ Then He said to them, "What man is there among you who has one sheep, and if it falls into a pit on the Sabbath, will not lay hold of 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." ¹³ Then He said to the man, "Stretch out your hand." And he stretched it out, and it was restored as whole as the other. ¹⁴ Then _k the Pharisees went out and plotted against Him, how they might destroy Him.
