Luke 14:1-6

1One Jewish day of rest, Jesus went into the house of a leader of the Pharisees. This man had asked him to come and to eat a meal with him. The people there were all watching him carefully.

2A sick man came up to Jesus. His arms and legs had grown fat, because they were full of water.

3So Jesus spoke to the Pharisees and to the teachers of God's Law. He asked them, ‘Is it right for us to make someone well on our day of rest, or not?’

4But they would not say anything. So Jesus took the sick man and he made him well again. Then he let him go away.

5Then Jesus asked the people, ‘Maybe one of you has a son or an animal that falls into a well on our day of rest. What will you do? You will pull the child or the animal out of the well immediately.’

6When Jesus said this, they could not say anything else.
