Contextual Overview

1 And it came to pass, on a Sabbath, that he was passing along through cornfields, and his disciples were plucking and eating the ears of corn, rubbing them with their hands. 2 But, certain of the Pharisees, said - Why are ye doing what is not allowed on the Sabbath? 3 And, making answer unto them, Jesus said - Have ye never read, even this, what David did when he hungered, he, and they who were with him - 4 How he entered into the house of God, and, the presence-bread, receiving, did eat, and gave to them who were with him, which it is not allowable to eat, save alone, to the priests? 5 And he was saying to them - The Son of Man is, Lord of the Sabbath. 6 And it came to pass, on another Sabbath, that he entered into the synagogue, and was teaching, and there was a man there, and, his right hand, was withered. 7 Now the Scribes and the Pharisees were narrowly watching him, whether, on the Sabbath, he healeth, - that they might find whereof to accuse him. 8 But, he, knew their reasonings, and said to the man who had the, withered, hand - Arise, and stand forward in the midst! And, arising, he stood forward. 9 And Jesus said unto them - I ask you, whether it is allowed, on the Sabbath, to do good or to do harm, - life, to save, or, to destroy. 10 And, looking round upon them all, he said unto him - Stretch forth thy hand! and, he, did so, and his hand was restored.
