Matthew 12:14
12 How much more valuable is a man than a sheep! Therefore it is lawful to do good on the Sabbath.”
13 Then Jesus said to the man, “Stretch out your hand.” So he stretched it out, and it was restored to full use, just like the other.
But the Pharisees went out and plotted how they might kill Jesus.
15 Aware of this, Jesus withdrew from that place. Large crowds followed Him, and He healed them all,
16 warning them not to make Him known.
Here the Bible tells a story about someone else. Ask yourself what it can say to us today. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
