Luca 14:5

Listen to Luca 14:5
5 Poi disse loro: Chi di voi, se un figliuolo od un bue cade in un pozzo, non lo trae subito fuori in giorno di sabato?

Luke 14:5

The Syriac and Persic versions, instead of "an ass", read "a son", very wrongly: a like kind of reasoning is used by Christ, in (See Gill on Matthew 12:11), (See Gill on Luke 13:15).
