Exegesis
The final prohibition kai mē tē hēmera tou sabbatou {καὶ μὴ τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τοῦ σαββάτου | kaí mḗ tē hēmérā toû sabbátou} ‘and not on the Sabbath day’ omits its verb to mirror the imperatives. The translation renders participles as subordinate clauses and the participial-imperative pairing as natural English commands while preserving the contrast between permissible workdays and contested Sabbath healing.
Root and etymology
“leaven, ferment”
In context — Luke 13:14
But the synagogue ruler, outraged because Jesus had healed on the Sabbath , replied to the crowd, “There are six days in which it is necessary to work; come on those days to be healed, and not on the Sabbath day.”
