CCEL Footnote 2052 (In-Text, Margin)

[43] And when Jesus entered into the house of one of the chiefs of the Pharisees to eat bread on the sabbath day, and they were watching him to see what he would [44, 45] do, and there was before him a man which had the dropsy, Jesus answered and [46] said unto the scribes and the Pharisees, Is it lawful on the sabbath to heal? But [Arabic, p. 114] they were silent. So he took him, and healed him, and sent him away. [47][Luke 14:5] And he said unto them, Which of you shall have his son or his ox fall on the sabbath day into a well, and not lift him up straightway, and draw water for [48] him? And they were not able to answer him a word to that.

CCEL Footnote 3880 (In-Text, Margin)

... soul that was tottering to a fall under a weight of sin? Why dost thou not also charge upon Him as a crime the fact that He eats with Publicans and at Publicans’ tables, and that He makes disciples of Publicans, that He too may gain somewhat…and what?…the salvation of sinners. If so, we must blame the physician for stooping over sufferings, and enduring evil odours that he may give health to the sick; or one who as the Law commands bent down into a ditch to save a beast that had fallen into it.[Luke 14:5]
