Luke:6:1-11
Seeker Overlay ON
*
And it came to pass on the second sabbath after the first ,
that he went through corn-fields ;
and his disciples plucked the ears of corn ,
and ate ,
rubbing them in their hands .
*
And certain of the Pharisees said to them ,
Why do ye that which it is not lawful to do on the sabbath-days ?
*
And Jesus answering them ,
said ,
Have ye not read so much as this ,
what David did ,
when himself was hungry ,
and they who were with him ;
*
How he went into the house of God ,
and took and ate the show-bread ,
and gave also to them that were with him ,
which it is not lawful to eat but for the priests alone ?
*
And he said to them ,
That the Son of man is Lord also of the sabbath .
*
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 :
*
And the scribes and Pharisees watched him ,
to see whether he would heal on the sabbath ;
that they might find an accusation against him .
*
But he knew their thoughts ,
and said to the man who had the withered hand ,
Rise ,
and stand forth in the midst .
And he arose ,
and stood forth .
*
Then said Jesus to 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 ?
*
And looking around upon them all ,
he said to the man ,
Stretch forth thy hand .
And he did so :
and his hand was restored whole as the other .
*
And they were filled with madness ;
and communed one with another what they might do to Jesus .
