Jesus Heals the Withered Hand

Jesus stands in the synagogue beside a man who lifts his restored hand in astonishment, while watchful scribes and Pharisees look on from the background. The scene portrays the Sabbath healing of the man with the withered hand, when religious leaders sought grounds to accuse Jesus, but He answered their hardness of heart by doing good openly. The healed hand becomes the central witness: mercy is lawful, human life is precious, and the Lord of the Sabbath reveals the heart of God through restoration. This artwork serves well for teaching on Christ’s compassion, Sabbath controversy, healing ministry, religious opposition, and the authority of Jesus over legalism.
