He touched her and at once she stood straight up and praised God. The official of the synagogue was angry that Jesus healed on the Sabbath. He told the people: There are six days in which we should work. Come during those days and be healed, not on the Sabbath! The Lord answered: You hypocrites! You would untie your ox or your donkey from the stall and take it out to give it water on the Sabbath. Here is a descendant of Abraham whom Satan has kept in bonds for eighteen years. Should she be released on the Sabbath?


Why do you see the speck in your brother's eye? Do you not consider the beam in your own eye? Will you tell your brother, 'I will remove the speck from your eye' when there is a beam in your own eye? You hypocrite! First remove the beam out of your own eye. Then you can see to remove the speck out of your brother's eye.

Should she be released on the Sabbath? His answer shamed his enemies. The people rejoiced over the wonderful things he did. Jesus continued: To what shall I compare the Kingdom of God? What is it like? It is like this. A man plants a mustard seed in his field. The plant grows and becomes a tree. The birds make their nests in its branches. Again Jesus asked: With what should I compare the Kingdom of God? It is like this. A woman takes some yeast and mixes it with a bushel of flour. Soon the whole batch of dough rises. Jesus went through towns and villages, teaching the people and traveling toward Jerusalem. Someone asked him, Will only a few people be saved? Jesus answered them: Strive to go in through the narrow door. Many people will try to go in and will not be able. The master of the house will close the door. You stand outside and knock on the door and say: 'Open the door for us, sir!' He will answer: 'I do not know where you come from!' Then you will answer, we ate and drank with you. You taught in our town! Again he will say: 'I do not know where you come from. Get away from me, you wicked people!' You will cry and grind your teeth when you see Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and all the prophets in the Kingdom of God, while you are thrown out! People will come from east, west, north and south and sit down at the feast in the Kingdom of God. Those who are last will be first, and those who are first will be last. Some Pharisees came to Jesus and warned him: You must leave and go somewhere else for Herod wants to kill you. Jesus told them: Go tell that fox I cast out demons and heal people today and tomorrow. On the third day my work will be finished. I must go on my way today, tomorrow and the following day. It would not be right that a prophet perish outside of Jerusalem. O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you who kill the prophets! You stone those sent to you. How often I would have gathered your children together, even as a hen gathers her own brood under her wings. But you would not have it! Behold, your house is made desolate. I tell you, you shall not see me until you say blessed is he who comes in the name of Jehovah. (Psalm 118:26)
