Luke 14:1-6

1 One Sabbath Jesus went to eat a meal at the home of one of the leading Pharisees; and people were watching Jesus closely.

2 A man whose legs and arms were swollen came to Jesus,

3 and Jesus spoke up and asked the teachers of the Law and the Pharisees, "Does our Law allow healing on the Sabbath or not?"

4 But they would not say a thing. Jesus took the man, healed him, and sent him away.

5 Then he said to them, "If any one of you had a child or an ox that happened to fall in a well on a Sabbath, would you not pull it out at once on the Sabbath itself?" ¹

6 But they were not able to answer him about this.
