The healing of a paralytic
Luke 5, 17-26
The impression of an argument about Jesus’ authority is given here.
Jesus’ forgiveness of sins and his acting for well-being happens by the decisive power of the Lord given to him, this means by the Spirit of God.
In these “Jesus-events” everybody experiences God. Therefore Jesus is no
blasphemer but the Son of Man who is authorized by God who has also appeared as the Saviour of the lost. That’s why there is a praise for God at the end. |
