Working With A Withered Hand
King James Version
9 And when he was departed thence, he went into their synagogue:
10And, 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.
The Message
9-10 When Jesus left the field, he entered their meeting place. There was a man there with a crippled hand. They said to Jesus, "Is it legal to heal on the Sabbath?" They were baiting him.
The Object of the story was the fact that Jesus was healing on the Sabbath Day. The matter at hand is that it is most difficult to operate without the functuion of both hands, especially when you are born with such capabilities. Nevertheless, the fact that he had his feet got him to a place of worship to the one that was able to heal him of his withered Hand (Right Hand, Says Luke). The right hand signifying Power. Therefore, it would be fair to say that those who are whole&healthy have not the excuse not to excercise the purpose by which God has given them.
Jesus changes water into wine at a wedding, His first miracle. Then He heals Peter’s mother-in-law. Jesus heals the lame, blind, crippled and those with leprosy. He forgives sins. He tells the waves to be still and they obey Him. Jesus proves with all the miracles that He is God.
