Jesus mentions situations when for practical reasons (necessary farm chores, like watering animals) work can be done without breaking the Sabbath rest. Certainly, the observance of the Sabbath was always subject to the practice of charity, that it was always permissible to break the Sabbath rest in the case when needed to do some necessary act of charity for another. In another place, Jesus himself says that the Sabbath is made for man, not man for the Sabbath (Mark 2:27).

Didn’t God himself rest on the sixth day? Ought we not do the same? How does this Jesus heal on the Sabbath if he is truly from God? In fact, there were many exceptions to the rules about the Sabbath. The head of the synagogue had a problem with that.

You Can Do a Lot More Than You Think on the Sabbath: This miracle was done on the Sabbath.

What could Jesus’ opponents do? They could only try to discredit the miracles in any way possible. Jesus was doing plenty of miracles, which most people were taking as the sign that he was sent by God. The sign was proof that the person (Jesus in this case) was sent by God. They knew that when God sent someone to speak for him, he usually performed signs through the person so that people would believe in him. But there was the pesky problem of his miracles.

They didn’t want to believe that he was the Messiah, and they especially didn’t want anyone else to think he was the Messiah. Jesus Is Showing His Messiah Credentials Again: Jesus’ opponents were desperate.Petition : Lord, protect me from spiritual old age. May my love for you and those around me be similar to the love you have shown to me. I trust in you, hoping to learn to accept and follow your will, even when it does not make sense to the way that I see things. Introductory Prayer : Lord, I believe in you with a faith that never seeks to test you. Come on those days to be cured, not on the sabbath day.” The Lord said to him in reply, “Hypocrites! Does not each one of you on the sabbath untie his ox or his ass from the manger and lead it out for watering? This daughter of Abraham, whom Satan has bound for eighteen years now, ought she not to have been set free on the sabbath day from this bondage?” When he said this, all his adversaries were humiliated and the whole crowd rejoiced at all the splendid deeds done by him. But the leader of the synagogue, indignant that Jesus had cured on the sabbath, said to the crowd in reply, “There are six days when work should be done. When Jesus saw her, he called to her and said, “Woman, you are set free of your infirmity.” He laid his hands on her, and she at once stood up straight and glorified God. And a woman was there who for eighteen years had been crippled by a spirit she was bent over, completely incapable of standing erect. Jesus was teaching in a synagogue on the sabbath.
