Then Jesus said to them, “I ask you, is it lawful to do good or to do harm on the Sabbath, to save life or to destroy it?”
Then he said to them, “Is it lawful to do good or to do harm on the Sabbath, to save life or to kill?” But they were silent.
And Jesus asked the experts in the law and Pharisees, “Is it lawful to cure people on the Sabbath or not?”
After looking around at all of them, he said to him, “Stretch out your hand.” He did so, and his hand was restored.
But he knew what they were thinking, and he said to the man who had the withered hand, “Come and stand in the middle.” He got up and stood there.
Then they went on to another village.
