Mark 2:5
Context2:5 When Jesus saw their 1 faith, he said to the paralytic, “Son, your sins are forgiven.” 2
Mark 2:11-12
Context2:11 “I tell you, stand up, take your stretcher, and go home.” 3 2:12 And immediately the man 4 stood up, took his stretcher, and went out in front of them all. They were all amazed and glorified God, saying, “We have never seen anything like this!”
1 sn The plural pronoun their makes it clear that Jesus was responding to the faith of the entire group, not just the paralyzed man.
2 sn The passive voice here is a divine passive (ExSyn 437). It is clear that God does the forgiving.
3 tn Grk “to your house.”
4 tn Grk “he”; the referent (the man who was healed) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
