Luke 6:10 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 6:10

And looking round about upon them all
The Scribes and Pharisees, and the rest of the people in the synagogue; (See Gill on Mark 3:5).

he said to the man;
who had the withered hand,

stretch forth thy hand, and he did so;
he stretched it out, as the Syriac and Persic versions render it, which he was not able to do before:

and his hand was restored well as the other;
the phrase, "well as the other", is left out in one copy, and in the Vulgate Latin version; and so is the word "well" in the Syriac and Arabic versions; and the word "immediately" is added in the Ethiopic version. And certain it is, that his withered hand was restored sound and well as the other, directly.

Luke 6:10 In-Context

8 But Jesus knew their thoughts and said to the man, "Stand up and come here to the front." The man got up and stood there.

9 Then Jesus said to them, "I ask you: What does our Law allow us to do on the Sabbath? To help or to harm? To save someone's life or destroy it?"

10 He looked around at them all; then he said to the man, "Stretch out your hand." He did so, and his hand became well again.

11 They were filled with rage and began to discuss among themselves what they could do to Jesus.

12 At that time Jesus went up a hill to pray and spent the whole night there praying to God.
