men they had not w that n man is of much mote value than a sheep a good many have not yet learned it the pharisees had- no pity for the poor fellow with the withered hand all they saw in his misery was a chance to entrap christ they were very religious crest atica lers- for the letter but withered in heart there are many such today jesus was angered at them and at lev ed at the haftenmg of their hearts ms 3 5 it la just the same to day the pharisees attended to the minute and neglected the mammoth matt 33 33 for the pharisees of all nee i cor 13 la especially they could not was any se it the word of prayer so were completely me htn of work day for if there done god must have and that was not contrary even to the pharisaic- interpretation of the sab- hath law even though the pharisees wer silenced they were not satisfied they went out and took counsel how they might destroy ilim the method of the cure was deeply significant he commanded the man to do what quite likely it was naturally impossible for him to do hut wltb the will to obey came the power to act jesus christ often commands the impossible but if we will just believe ilim he will give the power to do the impossible talk 9 23 the command was simply a test of faith the man acted his failh and the deed was done the hand was restored whole it is a beautiful illustration of what faith is simply stepping on christs word ii the son of man suffering for men lai although jesus had healed the man with the withered hand the pnart- a gave no sign of rejoicing beaten by his superior power they resorted to mane and plotted his death they placed the technical observance of the sabbath above the dire need of a sufferer and beca jesus made the man whole they were fovea wrong their pride and popularity were hurt- la revenge they appeared to be dis pleased with jesus disregard of their idea of keeping the sabbath ami charged him with breaking the sabbath which was by law a capital crime ex 35 2 ills hour being uot yet come jno 7 6 jesus retired from their presence followed by a great crowd among whom were many with diseases who he healed ills charging them not to make ilim known v i6 was for the purpose of preserving himself from popular ity on the basis of miracles rather than of faith jno 12 37 the activities of jesus cause the recorder to see in them the fulfill ment of prophecy reference is made to the prophetic statement of isa 42 14 in vs 1ft- 21 the saviour is referred to as the lords servant in the mighty undertaking of redeem ing n lost world jno 3 though he were n son yet learned he obed

elect people 1 pet 3 9 10 in this he is the one la whom the father is well pleased jesus is the only man that ever lived of whom god could say that as the revealer of grace and truth jno 1 14 jesus was the incarnation of lle shall not strive nor cry he- was mild and quiet but successful when sinners came to him he dtd not cast them out jno- 6 38 they were not repelled by any show off austere power the blind toan by the roadside felt he could call out to htm and be heard mk 10 48 ost racised lepers knew he could lean them and so they cried out abov the noise- of the multitude and tnatlmt
