Then he said to the man,
Stretch forth your hand.
And he stretched it forth; and it was restored whole, like the other.

Ord.: Thus He answers their question with a suitable example, so as to she that they profane the sabbath by works of covetousness who were charging Him with profaning it by works of charity; evil interpreters of the Law, who say that on the sabbath we ought to rest from good deeds, when it is only evil deeds from which we ought to rest. As it is said, “Ye shall do no servile work therein,” that is, no sin. Thus in the everlasting rest, we shall rest only from evil, and not from good.
