Luke 6:7

7 The Torah-teachers and P'rushim watched Yeshua carefully to see if he would heal on Shabbat, so that they could accuse him of something.

Luke 6:7 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 6:7

And the Scribes and Pharisees watched him
(See Gill on Mark 3:2)

whether he would heal on the sabbath day:
there being such an object before him:

that they might find an accusation against him;
as they had before against his disciples.

Luke 6:7 In-Context

5 "The Son of Man," he concluded, "is Lord of Shabbat."

6 On another Shabbat, when Yeshua had gone into the synagogue and was teaching, a man was there who had a shriveled hand.

7 The Torah-teachers and P'rushim watched Yeshua carefully to see if he would heal on Shabbat, so that they could accuse him of something.

8 But he knew what they were thinking and said to the man with the shriveled hand, "Come up and stand where we can see you!" He got up and stood there.

9 Then Yeshua said to them, "I ask you now: what is permitted on Shabbat? Doing good or doing evil? Saving life or destroying it?"
