NETBible	When Jesus heard this he said to them, “Those who are healthy don’t need a physician, but those who are sick do.¹ I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners.”
NET Notes	¹sn Jesus’ point is that he associates with those who are sick because they have the need and will respond to the offer of help. A person who is healthy (or who thinks mistakenly that he is) will not seek treatment.
