Luke 14:1-5 ▼

1 One Sabbath, Jesus went to the house of a leader of the Pharisees to eat a meal. The guests were watching Jesus closely.

2 A man whose body was swollen with fluid suddenly appeared in front of him.

3 So Jesus asked the Pharisees and experts in the Law, |Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath or not?|

4 But they kept silent. So he took hold of the man, healed him, and sent him away.

5 Then he asked them, |If your son or ox falls into a well on the Sabbath day, you would pull him out immediately, wouldn't you?|
