Mark 3:1 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 3:1

And he entered again into the synagogue
Perhaps in Capernaum, where he had before cast out the unclean spirit; but not on the same day, nor on that day he had had the debate with the Pharisees, about his disciples plucking the ears of corn on the sabbath day; but on another sabbath, perhaps the next; see ( Luke 6:6 ) .

And there was a man there which had a withered hand;
who came there either for a cure, knowing Christ to be in the synagogue, or for the sake of worship; (See Gill on Matthew 12:10).

3 And he said to the man, Get up and come forward.

4 And he said to them, Is it right to do good on the Sabbath or to do evil? to give life or to put to death? But they said nothing.

5 And looking round on them he was angry, being sad because of their hard hearts; and he said to the man, Put out your hand. And he put it out, and his hand was made well.
