“And Jesus answering said unto them, They that are whole need not a physician; but they that are sick.”
Jesus answered them, it is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick — the medical analogy is the logical defense of the boundary-crossing table fellowship. A doctor who refuses contact with the sick has misunderstood the medical vocation. Jesus is Israel's physician — the sick are his patients, not his contamination.
