Luke 6:5

3 But Jesus answering them said, “Have you not even read this, ^awhat David did when he was hungry, he and those who were with him:

4 how he went into the house of God, took and ate the showbread, and also gave some to those with him, ^awhich is not lawful for any but the priests to eat?”

5 And He said to them, “The Son of Man is also Lord of the Sabbath.”

Healing on the Sabbath

6 ^aNow it happened on another Sabbath, also, that He entered the synagogue and taught. And a man was there whose right hand was withered.

7 So the scribes and Pharisees watched Him closely, whether He would ^aheal on the Sabbath, that they might find an ^baccusation against Him.

8 But He ^aknew their thoughts, and said to the man who had the withered hand, “Arise and stand here.” And he arose and stood.
