Mtu Mwenye Mkono Uliopooza (L'homme à la main desséchée)

James Tissot · 1886–1894
Brooklyn Museum, New York

Katika sinagogi lenye mashada ya taa za kioo zinazoning'inia, mtu mwenye joho lenye milia ananyoosha mkono wake kuelekea Yesu, ambaye amesimama upande wa kushoto akiwa na mtandio mweupe wa maombi wenye milia myeusi.

Pande zote, wazee wanainama kutoka kwenye mabenchi na kutoka kwenye roshani iliyochongwa juu ili waone kitakachotokea; mmoja anafunika mdomo wake kwa mkono. Tissot kwa mara nyingine alilijaza tukio kwa mbao zenye nakshi na taa zinazoning'inia.

Aya

Mt 12:9–13Kisha Yesu akatoka pale akaenda katika sinagogi lao. Tazama kulikuwa na mtu aliyepooza mkono. Mafarisayo wakamuuliza Yesu, wakisema. “Je, ni halali kuponya siku ya Sabato?” ili kwamba waweze kumshitaki kwa kutenda dhambi. Yesu akawaambia, “Nani kati yenu, ambaye ikiwa ana kondoo mmoja, na huyu kondoo akaanguka ndani ya shimo siku ya sabato, hatamshika na kumtoa kwa nguvu ndani ya shimo? Je, ni kipi chenye thamani, zaidi kwani, si zaidi ya kondoo! Kwa hivyo ni halali kutenda mema siku ya Sabato.'' Kisha Yesu akamwambia yule mtu,” Nyoosha mkono wako” Akaunyoosha, na ukapata afya, kama ule mwingine.
