The Man with a Paralyzed Hand

Luke 6:6-11, Matthew 12:9-14, Mark 3:1-6

Jesus left that place and went to a synagogue, where there was a man who had a paralyzed hand. Some people were there who wanted to accuse Jesus of doing wrong, so they asked him, "Is it against our Law to heal on the Sabbath?"
Jesus answered, "What if one of you has a sheep and it falls into a deep hole on the Sabbath? Will he not take hold of it and lift it out?" And a man is worth much more than a sheep! So then our Law does allow us to help someone on  the Sabbath."
Then he said to the man with the paralyzed hand, "Stretch out your hand."
He stretched it out, and it became well again, just like the other one.
