   [2] But when the Pharisees saw it, they said unto him, Behold, thy   
   disciples do that which is not lawful to do upon the sabbath day.   
   [3] But he said unto them, Have ye not read what David did, when he was   
   an hungred, and they that were with him;   
   [4] How he entered into the house of God, and did eat the shewbread,   
   which was not lawful for him to eat, neither for them which were with   
   him, but only for the priests?   
   [5] Or have ye not read in the law, how that on the sabbath days the   
   priests in the temple profane the sabbath, and are blameless?   
   [6] But I say unto you, That in this place is one greater than the temple.   
   [7] But if ye had known what this meaneth, I will have mercy, and not   
   sacrifice, ye would not have condemned the guiltless.   
   [8] For the Son of man is Lord even of the sabbath day.   
      
   Luke 6:1-5   
      
   Plucking Grain on the Sabbath   
   Mt 12:1-8; Mk 2:23-28   
      
   1 (Dt 23:25; Mt 12:1-8) On the second Sabbath after the first, He went through   
   the grain fields, and His disciples plucked and ate the heads of grain,   
   rubbing them in their hands.   
   2 (Mt 12:2) Some of the Pharisees said to them, "Why are you doing what   
   is not lawful to do on the Sabbath?"   
   3 (1Sa 21:3-6; Mt 21:16) Jesus answered them,   
   "Have you not read what David did when he   
   and those who were with him were hungry?   
   4 (Lev 24:5-9) He went into the house of God, and took   
   and ate the ritual bread, and also gave it to those who were with him.   
   This was not lawful, but for the priests only to eat."   
   5 Then He said to them, "The Son of Man is Lord even of the Sabbath."   
      
   [1] And it came to pass on the second sabbath after the first, that he went   
   through the corn fields; and his disciples plucked the ears of corn, and did   
   eat, rubbing them in their hands.   
   [2] And certain of the Pharisees said unto them, Why do ye that which is not   
   lawful to do on the sabbath days?   
   [3] And Jesus answering them said, Have ye not read so much as this, what   
   David did, when himself was an hungred, and they which were with him;   
   [4] How he went into the house of God, and did take and eat the shewbread,   
   and gave also to them that were with him; which it is not lawful to eat but   
   for the priests alone?   
   [5] And he said unto them, That the Son of man is Lord also of the sabbath.   
      
   Mark 3:1-6   
      
   The Man With a Withered Hand   
   Mt 12:9-14; Lk 6:6-11   
      
   1 (Mt 12:9–14; Mk 1:21) Again, He entered the synagogue, and there was a man   
   who had a withered hand.   
   2 (Lk 14:1; 6:7) They watched Him to see whether He would heal him   
   on the Sabbath, so that they might accuse Him.   
   3 He said to the man who had the withered hand, "Stand up."   
   4 Then He said to them, "Is it lawful to do good or to do evil   
   on the Sabbath, to save life or to kill?" But they kept silent.   
   5 (Lk 6:10; Ro 11:25) When He had looked around at them with anger,   
   being grieved for the hardness of their hearts, He said to the man,   
   "Stretch your hand forward." He stretched it out, and his hand   
   was restored as whole as the other.   
   6 (Mt 22:16; Mk 12:13) Then the Pharisees went out and immediately   
   took counsel with the Herodians against Him, how to kill Him.   
      
   [1] And he entered again into the synagogue; and there was a man there which   
   had a withered hand.   
   [2] And they watched him, whether he would heal him on the sabbath day; that   
   they might accuse him.   
   [3] And he saith unto the man which had the withered hand, Stand forth.   
   [4] And he saith unto them, Is it lawful to do good on the sabbath days, or   
   to do evil? to save life, or to kill? But they held their peace.   
   [5] And when he had looked round about on them with anger, being grieved for   
   the hardness of their hearts, he saith unto the man, Stretch forth thine   
   hand. And he stretched it out: and his hand was restored whole as the other.   
   [6] And the Pharisees went forth, and straightway took counsel with the   
   Herodians against him, how they might destroy him.   
      
   Matthew 12:9-14   
      
   The Healing of the Withered Hand   
      
   Mk 3:1-6; Lk 6:6-11   
      
   9 (Lk 6:6-11) When He had departed from there, He went into their synagogue.   
   10 (Lk 13:14; Jn 9:16) And there was a man whose hand had withered.   
   They asked Him, "Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath?"   
   that they might accuse Him.   
   11 (Lk 14:5; Ex 23:4-5) He said to them, "What man is there among you who   
   has one sheep, and if it falls into a pit on the Sabbath,   
   will not lay hold of it and lift it out?   
   12 (Mt 6:26; 10:31) Then how much better is a man than a sheep? Therefore,   
   it is lawful to do good on the Sabbath."   
   13 Then He said to the man, "Stretch out your hand." And he stretched it out,   
   and it was restored whole like the other.   
   14 (Jn 11:53; Mt 27:1) Then the Pharisees went out and took counsel   
   against Him, how they might kill Him.   
      
   [9] And when he was departed thence, he went into their synagogue:   
   [10] And, behold, there was a man which had his hand withered. And they   
   asked him, saying, Is it lawful to heal on the sabbath days? that they   
   might accuse him.   
   [11] And he said unto them, What man shall there be among you, that   
   shall have one sheep, and if it fall into a pit on the sabbath day, will   
   he not lay hold on it, and lift it out?   
   [12] How much then is a man better than a sheep? Wherefore it is lawful to   
   do well on the sabbath days.   
   [13] Then saith he to the man, Stretch forth thine hand. And he stretched it   
   forth; and it was restored whole, like as the other.   
   [14] Then the Pharisees went out, and held a council against him, how they   
   might destroy him.   
      
   Luke 6:6-11   
      
   The Man With a Withered Hand   
   Mt 12:9-14; Mk 3:1-6   
      
   6 (Mt 12:9-14; Mk 3:1-6) On another Sabbath, when He entered the synagogue   
   and taught, there was a man whose right hand had withered.   
   7 (Mk 3:2; Lk 20:20) The scribes and the Pharisees watched Him to see whether   
   He would heal on the Sabbath,   
   so that they might find an accusation against Him.   
   8 (Mt 9:4) But He knew their thoughts, and He said to the man   
   who had the withered hand, "Rise and stand in front."   
   So he rose and stood in front.   
   9 (Lk 14:3) Then Jesus said to them, "I will ask you one thing:   
   Is it lawful on the Sabbath to do good or to do evil,   
   to save life or to destroy it?"   
   10 (Mk 3:5) Then looking around at them all, He said to the man,   
   "Stretch out your hand." He did so, and his hand was restored   
   as whole as the other.   
   11 (Ac 5:33) But they were filled with madness   
   and discussed with each other what they might do to Jesus.   
      
   [6] And it came to pass also on another sabbath, that he entered into the   
   synagogue and taught: and there was a man whose right hand was withered.   
   [7] And the scribes and Pharisees watched him, whether he would heal on the   
   sabbath day; that they might find an accusation against him.   
   [8] But he knew their thoughts, and said to the man which had the withered   
   hand, Rise up, and stand forth in the midst. And he arose and stood forth.   
   [9] Then said Jesus unto them, I will ask you one thing; Is it lawful on the   
   sabbath days to do good, or to do evil? to save life, or to destroy it?   
   [10] And looking round about upon them all, he said unto the man, Stretch   
   forth thy hand. And he did so: and his hand was restored whole as the other.   
   [11] And they were filled with madness; and communed one with another what   
   they might do to Jesus.   
      
   Matthew 12:15-21   
      
   The Chosen Servant   
      
   15 (Mt 10:23; 19:2) But when Jesus knew it, He withdrew from there.   
   And great crowds followed Him, and He healed them all,   
   16 (Mt 8:4; 9:30) and warned them that they should not make Him known,   
   17 to fulfill what was spoken by Isaiah the prophet, saying:
