Why did Jesus heal on the Sabbath day?

A feast like the Sabbath contradicts the Old Testament novelty of time. Because of its repeatability, the Sabbath would not fit the linear progression of history from creation to the end. But at a closer look, the Sabbath reflects different stages: divine rest after the design was completed, the cultic aspect as a means of self-identification and God-likeness, then eschatological hope. Christianity changed its form, celebrating the Day of Resurrection instead, but kept the entire content of Sabbath theology.

How much more precious then is a man than a sheep? Therefore it is lawful to do good on the Sabbath.” And he said to the man, “Stretch out your hand.” And he stretched it out, and the hand became as sound as the other. The Pharisees went out and took counsel on how to kill Jesus.
