John 7:23 (King James Version)
If a man on the sabbath day receive circumcision, that the law of Moses should not be broken; are ye angry at me, because I have made a man every whit whole on the sabbath day?
- that the law of Moses should not be broken or, without
- breaking the law of Moses.
- Matthew 12:5
- I have made
- Rather, "I have healed a whole man" [holos
- anthropos
,] and not the circumcised member only. This reasoning was in perfect accordance with the principles of the Jews. So Tanchuma, "Circumcision, which is performed on one of the 248 ; members of man, vacates the sabbath; how much more the whole body of a man!" John 5:8 John 5:9 John 5:14-16
