Into what perplexity did Christ's working of miracles on the Sabbath throw the Pharisees?
Answer
"Therefore said some of the Pharisees, This man is not of God, because He keeps not the Sabbath day.
Others said, How can a man that is a sinner do such miracles? And there was a division among them." John
9: 16.
NOTE - The working of these wonderful, beneficent, and gracious miracles on the Sabbath was
an evidence that Christ was from God, and that His views of Sabbath-keeping were right. By these
miracles God was setting the seal of His approval to Christ's views and teachings respecting the Sabbath,
and to His manner of observing it, and thus condemning the narrow and false views of the Pharisees.
Hence the division.
