The man with withered hands has always been a peculiar situation to me. Luke 6:6 tells us that it was his right hand that was withered. From what I have read most do not know why this mans hand was this way. Most of the things i have read suggest that it was as the result of an accident but that is merely a suggestion. Then the look that Jesus gives the pharisees because he knows what they are trying to do. I can almost feel the piercing stare of Jesus' eyes as he stared angrily at the pharisees. I imagine being an extreme version of the one my parents used to give me when I had done something wrong. It really scares me to even think about that look coming from the Son of God. What an amazing turn around for this man who would have spent his life as a beggar if Jesus had not healed him on that day. Thats all for me!
