Christ Heals the Man with Dropsy


This is an illustration from an illuminated manuscript, depicting Christ curing a man with dropsy. 

"And Jesus spoke to the lawyers and Pharisees, saying, 'Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath, or not?' But they were silent. Then he took him and healed him, and let him go.  And he said to them, 'Which of you, having an ass or an ox that has fallen into a well, will not immediately pull him out on a sabbath day?' And they could not reply to this (Lk.14:3-6)."
