Luke 13:16 Context
14And the ruler of the Synagogue answered with indignation, because that Iesus had healed on the Sabbath day, and said vnto the people, There are sixe dayes in which men ought to worke: in them therefore come and be healed, and not on the Sabbath day. 15The Lord then answered him, and said, Thou hypocrite, doeth not each one of you on the Sabbath loose his oxe or his asse from the stall, and leade him away to watering? 16And ought not this woman being a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan hath bound, loe these eighteene yeeres, be loosed from this bond on the Sabbath day? 17And when hee had said these things, all his aduersaries were ashamed: & all the people reioyced for all the glorious things that were done by him. 18¶ Then said he, Unto what is the kingdome of God like? and whereunto shall I resemble it?
