How Jesus Healed A Paralyzed Man Through The Roof

But the first miracle was unseen as jesus said he was granting forgiveness for the man s sins.

How jesus healed a paralyzed man through the roof.

One could be seen as the paralyzed man was able to get up and walk. The friends climbed up an outside staircase and dug a hole through the roof. Some of the scribes thought to themselves. Who does he think he is.

When they couldn t get near jesus they went to the roof and uncovered the roof. When they had broken a space big enough through the roof the four men let the man down through the roof. Your sins are forgiven 3 and some of the scribes said to themselves this fellowblasphemes 4 and jesus knowing their thoughts said why are you thinking evil in your hearts. Imagine listening carefully to jesus when all of a sudden you hear something coming from above you.

Seeing their faith jesus said to the paralytic take courage son. For example matthew does not mention the intervening actions of the men how the men were able to get the paralyzed man to jesus. 2 and they brought to him a paralytic lying on a bed. When jesus saw their faith he told the paralyzed man that his sins were forgiven.

Matthew s writing tends to be abbreviated synopses of the events. The bible says that after digging through the roof the men lowered the mat that the paralyzed man was lying on down to where jesus was. The ceiling is crumbling a bit and everyone stops and looks up to see what s going on. The story of how jesus healed a paralyzed man shows two types of miracles.

The men climb atop the house and dig a hole through the roof then lower the paralyzed man through the hole. Healing the paralytic. When the man s friends carried him to the house where jesus was staying they found the house to be packed with people wanting to hear jesus and be healed by him.
