Man Lowered Through Roof Jesus

Who does he think he is.

Man lowered through roof jesus.

The first is the paralyzed man who was brought to jesus by friends and lowered through a roof to be healed. Ask the child if they can explain why it would be easier for jesus to forgive sins than heal the man. Then they lowered the sick man on his mat down into the crowd right in front of jesus. 20 seeing their faith jesus said to the man young man your sins are forgiven.

International standard version since they couldn t bring him to jesus because of the crowd they made an opening in the roof over the place where he was. They lowered their friend down to the place where jesus was. They dug through it and let down the mat on which the paralyzed man was lying. 20 when jesus saw their faith he said friend your sins are forgiven.

When jesus saw their faith he told the paralyzed man that his sins were forgiven. So they tore a hole in this man s roof and lowered him down to jesus. The friends climbed up an outside staircase and dug a hole through the roof. And when they had broken through they lowered the mat on which the paralytic was lying.

English standard version but finding no way to bring him in because of the crowd they went up on the roof and let him down with his bed through the tiles into the midst before jesus. Point out that jesus healed both the man s physical problem and his heart. So they went up to the roof and took off some tiles. Then they lowered the sick man on his mat down into the crowd right in front of jesus.

They tried to take him inside to jesus 19 but they couldn t reach him because of the crowd. When jesus saw their faith he said friend your sins are forgiven luke 5 20. When they had broken a space big enough through the roof the four men let the man down through the roof. When they couldn t get near jesus they went to the roof and uncovered the roof.

But instead of giving healing the first thing jesus said was son thy sins be forgiven thee. Luke 5 19 tells us when they could not find a way to do this because of the crowd they went up on the roof and lowered him on his mat through the tiles into the middle of the crowd right in front of jesus mark s gospel describes the process as digging through it 2 4. Jesus was impressed by the faith of these men. Some of the scribes thought to themselves.

Let s identify the two people to whom jesus said your sins are forgiven before he died on the cross. So they went up to the roof and took off some tiles. Help them realize that it was because everyone could see whether the man could walk versus his sins being forgiven not being seen by others.
