Matthew 12
Overview
12:1 Christ reproves the blindness of the Pharisees concerning the breach of the sabbath,
12:3 by scripture,
12:9 by reason,
Mat_12:13. and by a miracle;
12:22 He heals a man possessed that was blind and dumb;
12:24 and confuting the absurd charge of casting out devils by Beelzebub, he shows that blasphemy against the Holy Ghost shall never be forgiven;
12:36 Account shall be made of idle words;
12:38 He rebukes the unfaithful, who seek after a sign,
Mat_12:46. and shows who is his brother, sister, and mother.
