Lesson 30~ Jesus heals a withered hand

Mat. 12:9-13/Mark 3:1-5/Luke 6:6-10

Another day when Jesus was in the Synagogue. There was a man there with a withered hand. The Jewish leaders were watching Jesus to see if he would go against their law and heal the man on the Sabbath. For if he did they would have reason to have him killed. Knowing their hearts Jesus ask the Jewish leaders, "If a sheep were to fall into a ditch, would you not help it out of it? Would it also be right to help a man who is more important that an animal?" They did not answer him. Jesus was angry as he looked the people for they were being uncaring. 

Then Jesus told the man to stand in front of all the people. When he did, Jesus told him to stretch out his hand. As the man did so, his hand was healed. The Jewish leaders left there and began making plans to have Jesus killed.
