Healing a man with dropsy is one of the miracles of Jesus in the Gospels (Luke 14:1-6). [1] [2]
According to the Gospel, one Sabbath, Jesus went to eat in the house of a prominent Pharisee, and he was being carefully watched. There in front of him was a man suffering from dropsy, i.e. abnormal swelling of his body.
Jesus asked the Pharisees and experts in the law:
But they remained silent. So taking hold of the man, he healed him and sent him on his way.
Then he asked them:
And they had nothing to say.
Cornelius a Lapide comments on the mystical significance of the animals, writing, "that the ox and the donkey represent the wise and the foolish," which are "the Jew oppressed by the burden of the Law" (the ox) and "the Gentile not subject to reason." (the donkey/child) In both cases the Lord rescues them from the pit of concupiscence.
Commenting on the offended, speechless Pharisee, Theophylact of Ohrid writes, “Care nought, for the offence given to the Pharisees.” For when a great good is the result, we should not care if the foolish are offended. [4]
