LUKE 12:58 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“When thou goest with thine adversary to the magistrate, as thou art in the way, give diligence that thou mayest be delivered from him; lest he hale thee to the judge, and the judge deliver thee to the officer, and the officer cast thee into prison.”
He took hold of the man, healed him, and sent him on his way — the healing of the man with dropsy on the Sabbath repeats the bent-over woman's healing: the same Sabbath, the same silence from the questioners, the same livestock analogy (which of you would not pull your son or ox out of a well on the Sabbath?), the same absence of answer. The deliberate repetition enforces the point that the Sabbath objection has no answer.
