It was a central aspect of Jewish life and religious practice. Jesus often performed miracles on the Sabbath, challenging the Pharisees' legalistic interpretations and emphasizing the spirit of the law over the letter (<a href="/mark/2-27.htm">Mark 2:27-28</a>).<p><b>Jesus entered the synagogue</b><br>Synagogues were local centers for worship, teaching, and community gatherings. They played a crucial role in Jewish religious life, especially after the Babylonian exile when the temple was less accessible. Jesus frequently taught in synagogues, as seen in <a href="/luke/4-16.htm">Luke 4:16-21</a>, where He read from Isaiah and declared His messianic mission.<p><b>and was teaching</b><br>Teaching was a primary aspect of Jesus' ministry. He taught with authority, often using parables and direct instruction to reveal the truths of God's kingdom (<a href="/matthew/7-28.htm">Matthew 7:28-29</a>). His teachings challenged existing religious norms and offered a deeper understanding of God's will.<p><b>and a man was there whose right hand was withered</b><br>A withered hand would have been a significant disability, affecting the man's ability to work and participate fully in society. The mention of the "right hand" is notable, as the right hand was often associated with strength and skill (<a href="/psalms/137-5.htm">Psalm 137:5</a>). This healing would demonstrate Jesus' compassion and power, fulfilling prophecies like <a href="/isaiah/35-5.htm">Isaiah 35:5-6</a>, which speak of the Messiah bringing restoration and healing.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/j/jesus.htm">Jesus</a></b><br>Central figure in the New Testament, the Son of God, who is teaching in the synagogue.<br><br>2. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_synagogue.htm">The Synagogue</a></b><br>A Jewish place of worship and teaching, where Jesus often taught and performed miracles.<br><br>3. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_man_with_the_withered_hand.htm">The Man with the Withered Hand</a></b><br>An individual present in the synagogue with a physical ailment, specifically a withered right hand.<br><br>4. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_sabbath.htm">The Sabbath</a></b><br>A day of rest and worship in Jewish tradition, observed from Friday evening to Saturday evening.<br><br>5. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_pharisees_and_teachers_of_the_law.htm">The Pharisees and Teachers of the Law</a></b><br>Religious leaders who often challenged Jesus, particularly regarding Sabbath observance.<div class="vheading2">Teaching Points</div><b><a href="/topical/u/understanding_the_sabbath.htm">Understanding the Sabbath</a></b><br>The Sabbath is a gift from God meant for rest and worship, not a burden of legalistic rules.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/j/jesus'_authority.htm">Jesus' Authority</a></b><br>Jesus demonstrates His authority over the Sabbath, emphasizing mercy and compassion over strict adherence to tradition.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/c/compassion_over_legalism.htm">Compassion Over Legalism</a></b><br>Jesus prioritizes human need and compassion over rigid legalism, teaching us to do the same in our lives.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/f/faith_in_action.htm">Faith in Action</a></b><br>The man with the withered hand represents faith in action, as he responds to Jesus' call despite his ailment.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/c/challenge_of_tradition.htm">Challenge of Tradition</a></b><br>Jesus challenges us to examine our traditions and practices to ensure they align with God's heart and purposes.<div class="vheading2">Lists and Questions</div><a href="/top10/lessons_from_luke_6.htm">Top 10 Lessons from Luke 6</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/evidence_for_instant_healing_in_luke_6_6-10.htm">(Luke 6:6&#8211;10) Is there any historical or scientific evidence supporting this instantaneous healing of a withered hand? </a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/meaning_of_''no_other_name_under_heaven''.htm">Did Jesus violate the Sabbath law?</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/how_do_shammaite_and_hillelite_differ.htm">What distinguishes Shammaite and Hillelite perspectives?</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/did_jesus_violate_the_sabbath_law.htm">Did Jesus violate the Sabbath law?</a><a name="commentary" id="commentary"></a><div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/ellicott/luke/6.htm">Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers</a></div>(6) <span class= "bld">It came to pass also on another sabbath.</span>--See Notes on <a href="/context/matthew/12-9.htm" title="And when he was departed there, he went into their synagogue:">Matthew 12:9-14</a>; <a href="/context/mark/3-1.htm" title="And he entered again into the synagogue; and there was a man there which had a withered hand.">Mark 3:1-6</a>.<p><span class= "bld">Whose right hand was withered.</span>--St. Luke alone specifies which hand it was that was affected.<p><div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/pulpit/luke/6.htm">Pulpit Commentary</a></div><span class="cmt_sub_title">Verse 6.</span> - <span class="cmt_word">And it came to pass also on another sabbath, that he entered into the synagogue and taught: and there was a man whose right hand was withered.</span> This was the second part of his sabbath teaching.
