The man with the withered hand

Matthew 12:9-14Luke 6:6-11

See them side by side

Mark 3:1-6

1And he went again into a synagogue, and a man was there who had a withered hand. 2And they were watching him to see whether he would heal him on the Sabbath, so that they might accuse him. 3And he says to the man who had the withered hand, “Get up and come into the middle.” 4And he says to them, “Is it lawful on the Sabbath to do good or to do evil, to save a life or to kill?” But they were silent. 5And looking around at them with anger, grieved at the hardness of their heart, he says to the man, “Stretch out your hand.” And he stretched it out, and his hand was restored. 6And the Pharisees went out and at once held a council with the Herodians against him, how they might destroy him.

Matthew 12:9-14

9And moving on from there, he went into their synagogue. 10And look, there was a man with a withered hand. And they asked him, saying, “Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath?” so that they might accuse him. 11But he said to them, “What man will there be among you who has one sheep, and if it falls into a pit on the Sabbath, will not take hold of it and lift it out? 12How much more valuable, then, is a human being than a sheep! So it is lawful to do good on the Sabbath.” 13Then he says to the man, “Stretch out your hand.” And he stretched it out, and it was restored, healthy like the other. 14But the Pharisees went out and took counsel against him, how they might destroy him.

Luke 6:6-11

6And it happened on another Sabbath that he entered into the synagogue and was teaching; and there was a man there and his right hand was withered. 7And the scribes and the Pharisees were watching him closely to see whether he would heal on the Sabbath, so that they might find a way to accuse him. 8But he knew their reasonings, and he said to the man who had the withered hand, “Get up and stand in the middle.” And he got up and stood there. 9And Jesus said to them, “I ask you, is it lawful on the Sabbath to do good or to do evil, to save a life or to destroy it?” 10And looking around at them all, he said to him, “Stretch out your hand.” And he did so, and his hand was restored. 11But they were filled with senseless rage, and were discussing with one another what they might do to Jesus.
