Jesus Heals a Crippled Man(Mk. 2:1-12; Lk. 5:17-26) 9 1Jesus got into a boat and went back across the lake to his own town. 2Some people brought to him a man who was paralyzed and was lying on a mat. Jesus saw that these people had much faith. So he said to the paralyzed man, "Young man, you will be glad to hear this. Your sins are forgiven."
3Some of the teachers of the law heard what Jesus said. They said to themselves, "What an insult to God for this man to say that!"
4Jesus knew what they were thinking. So he said, "Why are you thinking such evil thoughts? 5-6The Son of Mana has power on earth to forgive sins. But how can I prove this to you? Maybe you are thinking it was easy for me to say, 'Your sins are forgiven.' There's no proof that it really happened. But what if I say to the man, 'Stand up and walk'? Then you will be able to see that I really have this power." So Jesus said to the paralyzed man, "Stand up. Take your mat and go home."
7The man stood up and went home. 8The people saw this and they were amazed. They praised God for letting someone have such power.
Matthew (Levi) Follows Jesus(Mk. 2:13-17; Lk. 5:27-32) 9When Jesus was leaving, he saw a man named Matthew sitting at the place for collecting taxes. Jesus said to him, "Follow me." So he got up and followed Jesus.
10Jesus ate dinner at Matthew's house. Many tax collectorsb and others with bad reputations came and ate with him and his followers. 11The Phariseesc saw that Jesus was eating with these people. They asked his followers, "Why does your teacher eat with tax collectors and other sinners?"
12Jesus heard them say this. So he said to them, "It is the sick people who need a doctor, not those who are healthy. 13You need to go and learn what this Scripture means: 'I don't want animal sacrifices; I want you to show kindness to people.'d I did not come to invite good people. I came to invite sinners."
Jesus Is Not Like Other Religious Leaders(Mk. 2:18-22; Lk. 5:33-39) 14Then the followers of Johne came to Jesus and said, "We and the Phariseesc fastf often, but your followers don't ever fastf. Why?"
15Jesus answered, "At a wedding the friends of the bridegroomg are not sad while he is with them. They cannot fast then. But the time will come when the bridegroomg will be taken from them. Then they will fast.
16"When someone sews a patch over a hole in an old coat, they never use a piece of cloth that has not already been shrunk. If they do, the patch will shrink and pull away from the coat. Then the hole will be worse. 17Also, people never pour new wine into old wineskinsh. They would break, the wine would spill out, and the wineskins would be ruined. People always put new wine into new wineskins, which won't break, and the wine stays good."
Jesus Gives Life to a Dead Girl and Heals a Sick Woman(Mk. 5:21-43; Lk. 8:40-56) 18While Jesus was still talking, a leader of the synagoguei came to him. The leader bowed down before him and said, "My daughter has just died. But if you will come and touch her with your hand, she will live again."
19So Jesus and his followers went with the man.
20On the way, there was a woman who had been bleeding for twelve years. She came close behind Jesus and touched the bottom of his coat. 21She was thinking, "If I can touch his coat, I will be healed."
22Jesus turned and saw the woman. He said, "Be happy, dear woman. You are made well because you believed." Then the woman was healed.
23Jesus continued going with the Jewish leader and went into the leader's house. He saw people there who make music for funerals. And he saw a crowd of people crying loudly. 24Jesus said, "Go away. The girl is not dead. She is only sleeping." But the people laughed at him. 25After the people were put out of the house, Jesus went into the girl's room. He held the girl's hand, and the girl stood up. 26The news about this spread all around the area.
Jesus Heals More People 27As Jesus was going away from there, two blind men followed him. They said loudly, "Show kindness to us, Son of Davidj."
28Jesus went inside, and the blind men went with him. He asked them, "Do you believe that I am able to make you see again?" They answered, "Yes, Lord, we believe."
29Then Jesus touched their eyes and said, "You believe that I can make you see again, so it will happen." 30Then the men were able to see. Jesus gave them a strong warning. He said, "Don't tell anyone about this." 31But they left and spread the news about Jesus all around that area.
32As these two men were leaving, some people brought another man to Jesus. This man could not talk because he had a demonk inside him. 33Jesus forced the demon out, and the man was able to talk. The people were amazed and said, "We have never seen anything like this in Israell."
34But the Phariseesc said, "The ruler of demons is the one that gives him power to force demons out."
Jesus Feels Sorry for the People 35Jesus traveled through all the towns and villages. He taught in their synagoguesi and told people the Good News about God's kingdomm. He healed all kinds of diseases and sicknesses. 36Jesus saw the many people and felt sorry for them because they were worried and helpless - like sheep without a shepherd to lead them. 37Jesus said to his followers, "There is such a big harvest of people to bring in. But there are only a few workers to help harvest them. 38God owns the harvest. Ask him to send more workers to help gather his harvest."
aSon of Man The name that Jesus most often used for himself. The phrase in Hebrew or Aramaic means “human being” or “mankind,” but in Dan. 7:13-14 it is used of a future savior and king, and this was later understood to be the Messiah, the one God would send to save his people.
btax collector A Jew hired by the Romans to collect taxes. Tax collectors often cheated, and the other Jews hated them.
cPharisee A person who belonged to a Jewish religious group that claimed to follow carefully all Jewish laws and customs.
d9:13 Quote from Hos. 6:6.
eJohn See “John the Baptizer.”
ffast To live without food for a time of prayer or mourning.
gbridegroom A man who is getting married.
hwineskin A bag made from the skin of an animal and used for storing wine.
isynagogue A place in many cities where Jews gathered for prayer, study of the Scriptures, and other public meetings.
jSon of David A name for the Messiah (Christ) because it was prophesied that he would come from the family of David. See “David.”
kdemon An evil spirit from the devil.
lIsrael Another name for Jacob (see Gen. 32:24-28) and for the nation God chose to accomplish his plan of blessing the world through the Messiah (see “Messiah”). The people of Israel were the descendants of Jacob’s twelve sons. In the New Testament this name is sometimes used in a broader sense to mean all of God’s people.
mGod’s kingdom The “reign” or “rule” of God over all people who submit to him by accepting Jesus as the Messiah (the appointed king), who represents God’s kingdom on earth. Jesus was the perfect example of submission to the will of God. When people give control of their lives to Jesus, they become part of God’s kingdom and begin to enjoy the blessings he has promised his people from the beginning. (Note that in Matthew this term also translates the Greek word “kingdom” by itself or the phrase, “the kingdom of the heavens,” which was used by Jews as a way to avoid saying the divine name.)
