Chapter 13

On a Sabbath Jesus was teaching in one of the synagogues, and a woman was there who had been crippled by a spirit for eighteen years. She was bent over and could not straighten up at all. When Jesus saw her, he called her forward and said to her, “Woman, you are set free from your infirmity.” Then he put his hands on her, and immediately she straightened up and praised God.

Indignant because Jesus had healed on the Sabbath, the synagogue ruler said to the people, “There are six days for work. So come and be healed on those days, not on the Sabbath.”

The Lord answered him, “You hypocrites! Doesn’t each of you on the Sabbath untie his ox or donkey from the stall and lead it out to give it water? Then should not this woman, a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan has kept bound for eighteen long years, be set free on the Sabbath day from what bound her?”

When he said this, all his opponents were humiliated, but THE PEOPLE WERE DELIGHTED WITH ALL THE WONDERFUL THINGS HE WAS DOING.

JESUS HEALS A CRIPPLED
WOMAN ON THE SABBATH

[left that other site]

Good Morning, Dan. :-)

[etabeta]

Happy Sunday to you and All.
#7 by Tissot
Beautiful mid-4th c. carving which is located in the Vatican Museums, at #8
#22, I really like this Melanie Pike painting, a Canadian inspirational artist. The blurred crowd magnifies the supernatural miracle of the woman’s healing. Very touching.

Good Morning Dan, and joyful Sunday to all.
What a wonderful lesson from God’s Word; that His Holy Spirit would call forward those who trust in Him, and straighten us from our stooped and broken lives.

Thank You Dan!

[Salman]

Interesting sidelight -- Judaism post AD 70 takes what is also the Christian position on this. OK to break the Sabbath to save a life.

Another interesting sidelight -- The only Pharisee whose writings have survived to the preset day is the apostle Paul. OK he wasn't one any more when he wrote his letters.

[InkStone]

Thank you etabeta. Would love to visit the Vatican Museums...

[I got the rope]

This is wonderful! What a great post!

[Hebrews 11:6]

Hiya, Mary-Lou!

Say, is that first painting on your J-thread, showing the crowd being overawed by Jesus, a Tissot? It’s new to me.

[etabeta]

Getting into the Vatican Museums means being in very long lines, often under the sun or rain, for hours. I tried 4 times and had to leave.

[left that other site]

Yes. It is Tissot, showing his unique style. :-)

[Hebrews 11:6]

I’m with you on the Pike, Alba. Focused!

[Hebrews 11:6]

straighten us from our stooped and broken lives

Jesus heals me on the Sabbath and also on the other six days.

[Hebrews 11:6]

OK to break the Sabbath to save a life

And where was the Mosaic exemption to work as the Sabbath police during the Sabbath--wasn't that "working", too? If not, why not?

The only Pharisee whose writings have survived to the preset day is the apostle Paul.

I suppose one could say that Paul had graduated from Phariseeism.

[Hebrews 11:6]

So glad you approve!

I'm here nearly every day, although tomorrow is a day off--back on Tuesday, Lord willing.

[Hebrews 11:6]

Do you know its title, or can you share what you used to find it?

I want to use it, too--I'll need it in a couple of days (finishing the Last Supper now).

I used Brave browser with the key words:

“Jesus is arrested in Gethsemane”

It was a lithograph for sale on ebay, but has been sold, so it’s a broken link. However, you can use the link to thie image on Today’s J-Thread.

[Hebrews 11:6]

Thanks, ML. I always avoid ebay links.

[SisterK]

Today I learned that Gethsemane translated is “oil press”.

[left that other site]

Yes. There is still an Oil Press on the grounds of Gethsemane. It’s made of VERY HEAVY rocks.
