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

XREF

Job 14:4; Ps 130:4; Isa 43:25; Da 9:9; Mic 7:18; Mt 9:3; Mt 26:65; Mr 14:64; Lu 5:21; Lu 7:49; Joh 10:33,36; Joh 20:20-23

NET © Notes

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.
