"But they were silent. He took him, and healed him, and let him go. He answered them, “Which of you, if your son or an ox fell into a well, wouldn’t immediately pull him out on a Sabbath day?”" (Luke 14:4-5)
Law vs. Love
The Pharisees watched closely to see if He would 'break' the Sabbath. Jesus exposed their hypocrisy—they would save their own property on the Sabbath, but criticized saving a human life. He acted out of pure mercy.
Key Lesson: Doing good and showing mercy is always lawful and right in God's eyes.
