003:003 "Come forward," said He to the man with the shrivelled arm.
003:004 Then He asked them, "Are we allowed to do good on the Sabbath, or to do evil? to save a life, or to destroy one?" They remained silent.
003:005 Grieved and indignant at the hardening of their hearts, He looked round on them with anger, and said to the man, "Stretch out your arm." He stretched it out, and the arm was completely restored.
003:006 But no sooner had the Pharisees left the synagogue than they held a consultation with the Herodians against Jesus, to devise some means of destroying Him.
003:007 Accordingly Jesus withdrew with His disciples to the Lake, and a vast crowd of people from Galilee followed Him;
003:008 and from Judaea and Jerusalem and Idumaea and from beyond
the Jordan and from the district of Tyre and Sidon there came
to Him a vast crowd, hearing of all that He was doing.
003:009 So He gave directions to His disciples to keep a small
boat in constant attendance on Him because of the throng—
to prevent their crushing Him.
003:010 For He had cured many of the people, so that all who had any
ailments pressed upon Him, to touch Him.
003:011 And the foul spirits, whenever they saw Him, threw themselves
down at His feet, screaming out: "You are the Son of God."
003:012 But He many a time checked them, forbidding them to say
who He was.
