Jesus heals on the Sabbath; the scribes and Pharisees want to accuse Him

Jesus heals on the Sabbath; the scribes and Pharisees want to accuse Him
Monday of the Twenty-third Week in Ordinary Time
Gospel text
Lk 6:6-11
On a certain Sabbath Jesus went into the synagogue and taught, and there was a man there whose right hand was withered. The scribes and the Pharisees watched him closely to see if he would cure on the Sabbath so that they might discover a reason to accuse him...
Gospel's Commentary
Today we are surprised watching people seeking to accuse Jesus. Accuse God! Isn’t it ridiculous? So it happened 21 centuries ago and it happens these days. What a fixation trying to put God on the ropes! - Do you know what happens to the followers of this "sport"? "But they were furious and began to discuss with one another how they could deal with Jesus". They go blind and in the end they don’t know what to do with God! Shameful!
