Contextual Overview
1 AND it came to pass when he entered the house of one of the leaders of the Pharisees to eat bread on a sabbath day, they watched him. 2 And there was a man before him, who had dropsy. 3 And Jesus answered and said to the scribes and Pharisees, Is it lawful to heal on the sabbath? 4 But they kept silent. So he took him, and healed him, and let him go. 5 And he said to them, Which one of you, if his son or his ox should fall into a pit on the sabbath day, would not immediately pull and bring him out? 6 And they could not answer him concerning this.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And answered them, saying,.... Murmuring secretly at what he had done:
which of you shall have an ass, or an ox fallen into a pit, and will not straightway pull him out on the sabbath day? being just ready to be drowned there; and therefore it must be much more right and necessary to cure a man, a reasonable creature, just drowning with a dropsy, as this man was. The Syriac and Persic versions, instead of "an ass", read "a son", very wrongly: a like kind of reasoning is used by Christ, in :-,
:-.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
See the notes at Matthew 12:11.
Which of you ... - In this way Jesus refuted the notion of the Pharisees. If it was lawful to save an ox on the Sabbath, it was also to save the life of a man. To this the Jews had nothing to answer.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
