Immediately, the man was made well, and took up his mat and walked. Now it was the Sabbath on that day.

So the Jewish leaders said to him who was cured, "It is the Sabbath. It is not lawful for you to carry the mat."

For this cause the Jewish leaders persecuted Jesus, because he did these things on the Sabbath.

For this cause therefore the Jewish leaders sought all the more to kill him, because he not only broke the Sabbath, but also called God his own Father, making himself equal with God.

Moses has given you circumcision (not that it is of Moses, but of the fathers), and on the Sabbath you circumcise a boy.

If a boy receives circumcision on the Sabbath, that the Law of Moses may not be broken, are you angry with me, because I made a man completely healthy on the Sabbath?

Now it was a Sabbath on the day when Jesus made the mud and opened his eyes.

Some therefore of the Pharisees said, "This man is not from God, because he does not keep the Sabbath." Others said, "How can a man who is a sinner do such signs?" There was division among them.

Therefore the Jewish leaders, because it was the Preparation Day, so that the bodies would not remain on the cross on the Sabbath (for that Sabbath was a special one), asked of Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away.
