Mark 2:7

Context
2:7 “Why does this man speak this way? He is blaspheming! 1  Who can forgive sins but God alone?”

Mark 4:34

Context
4:34 He did not speak to them without a parable. But privately he explained everything to his own disciples.

1 sn Blaspheming meant to say something that dishonored God. To claim divine prerogatives or claim to speak for God when one really does not would be such an act of offense. The remark raised directly the issue of the nature of Jesus’ ministry.
