Lord of the Sabbath and a Sabbath Healing

Luke 6:1-11

6
Chapter 6
1 And it happened that on a Sabbath he passed through grainfields, and his disciples were plucking and eating the heads of grain, rubbing them in their hands. 2 But some of the Pharisees said, "Why are you doing what is not lawful on the Sabbath?" 3 Jesus answered them, "Have you not even read what David did when he was hungry and those with him were?" 4 how he entered the house of God, took the breads of the presentation, ate them, and gave some to those with him—which it is not permitted to eat except by the priests alone? 5 And he said to them, "The Son of Humanity is Lord of the Sabbath." 6 On another Sabbath, he entered the synagogue and taught. There was a man there whose right hand was dry. 7 The scribes and Pharisees were watching him closely to see whether he would heal on the Sabbath, so that they might find an accusation against him. 8 But he knew their reasonings. He said to the man with the dry hand, "Get up and stand in the middle." And he got up and stood there. 9 Jesus said to them, "I ask you, is it lawful on the Sabbath to do good or to do evil, to save a life or to destroy it?" 10 And having looked around at them all, he said to him, "Stretch out your hand." And he did so, and his hand was restored. 11 But they were filled with madness, and they discussed with one another what they might do to Jesus.
