Luke Chapter 14, Verse 4
From BibleWiki
4: οι δε ησυχασαν και επιλαβομενος ιασατο αυτον και απελυσεν
4: And they held their peace. And he took him, and healed him,
and let him go;
4: But they held their peace. But he taking him, healed him and sent
him away.
They held their peace. They were silent. They could not say
it was not lawful, for the law did not forbid it. If it had they would
have said it. Here was the time for them to make objections if they had
any, and not after the man was healed; and as they made no objection
then, they could not with consistency afterward. They were therefore
effectually silenced and confounded by Jesus.
He took him. Took hold of the man, or perhaps took him apart into another room. By taking hold of him, or touching him, he showed that the power of healing went forth from himself.
