In this episode of Bible Bytes, host Randy Black delves into the profound story of Jesus healing a man with a withered hand on the Sabbath, as recounted in the gospels of Matthew, Mark, and Luke. This narrative not only highlights Jesus' compassion and authority but also challenges the rigid legalism of the religious leaders of his time. Through this story, listeners are encouraged to reflect on the true meaning of the Sabbath, emphasizing compassion over ritual and the importance of responding to human need regardless of the day or circumstance.

Randy guides us through the scriptural passages, illustrating how Jesus' actions reveal the heart of God's law—love and mercy. The episode encourages listeners to examine their own attitudes towards religious observance, questioning whether they prioritize rules over compassion. As always, the episode concludes with a prayer, inviting listeners to seek God's guidance in prioritizing mercy and goodness in their daily lives. Join us next week as we explore another miracle of Jesus, raising a widow's son from the dead.
