Matthew 12:10-12 ▼

10 And a man was there whose hand was withered. And they questioned Jesus, asking, “Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath?|—so that they might accuse Him.

11 And He said to them, “What man is there among you who has a sheep, and if it falls into a pit on the Sabbath, will he not take hold of it and lift it out?

12 “How much more valuable then is a man than a sheep! So then, it is lawful to do good on the Sabbath.”
