How did Jesus answer them?

Answer

"But Jesus answered them, My Father works hitherto, and I work." Verse 17.
NOTE - The ordinary operations of nature, as manifested in God's almighty, upholding,
beneficent, and healing power, continue on the Sabbath the same as on other days; and to co-operate with
God and nature in the work of healing, relieving, and restoring on the Sabbath, cannot, therefore, be out of
harmony with God's will, nor a violation of His Sabbath law.
