Gospel According to Mark (MLV)

Mark 2)

(Mk 2:1-12 & Mt 9:2-8 & Lk 5:17-26)

^2:1 And when he entered again into Capernaum after some days and it was heard that he was _<2>in the house.^2:2 And immediately many were gathered together, so-that there was no longer room for them, no, not even next to the door and he spoke the word to them.^2:3 And they come, bringing to him a man paralytic, lifted up by four men.^2:4 And when they could not draw near to him because of the crowd, they uncovered the roof where he was. And having dug out a hole in it, they let down the bed where the paralytic lay.^2:5 And Jesus seeing their faith says to the paralytic, Son, your sins are forgiven you*.^2:6 But there were certain of the scribes sitting there and reasoning in their hearts,^2:7 Why does this man speak blasphemies in this manner: who is able to forgive sins except one, who is God?^2:8 And immediately Jesus, knowing in his spirit that they so reasoned within themselves, says to them, Why do you* reason these things in your* hearts?^2:9 Which is easier, to say to the paralytic, Your sins are forgiven you; or to say, Arise and take up your bed and walk?^2:10 But that you* may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins (he says to the paralytic),^2:11 I say to you, Arise and take up your bed and go to your house.^2:12 And he arose immediately and having taken up the bed, went out before them all; so-that they were all astonished and glorified God, saying, We never saw it in this manner.

(Mk 2:13-14 & Mt 9:9 & Lk 5:27-28) At or near Capernaum

^2:13 And he went forth again by the sea side; and all the crowd came to him and he taught them.^2:14 And as he passed by, he saw Levi the son of Alphaeus sitting at the tax-office and he says to him, Follow me. And he arose and followed him.

^2:15 And it happened, while he was reclining at a meal in his house and many tax collectors and sinners reclined with Jesus and his disciples: for* there were many and they followed him.^2:16 And the scribes and the Pharisees, having seen him eating with the tax collectors and sinners, said to his disciples, Why is it that he is eating and drinking with tax collectors and sinners?

^2:17 And when Jesus heard it, he says to them, Those who are strong have no need of a physician, but those who are ill do. I did not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.

(Mk 2:15-22 & Mt 9:10-17 & Lk 5:29-39) Capernaum

^2:18 And the disciples of John and those of the Pharisees were fasting and they come and say to him, Why do the disciples of John and those of Pharisees fast, but your disciples do not fast?^2:19 And Jesus said to them, The _<3>sons of the bride chamber are not able to fast while the bridegroom is with them, are they? As long as they have the bridegroom with them they are not able to fast.^2:20 But the days will come, when the bridegroom will be taken away from them and then they will fast in those days.^2:21 And no one sews a piece of unshrunk cloth on an old garment: or else the new takes the fullness of the patch from the old itself and a worse tear is made.^2:22 And no one puts new wine into old wineskins; else the wine will burst the skins and the wine is poured out and the skins will be destroyed: but they put new wine into fresh wine-skins.

(Jn 5:1-47) Jerusalem probably the Passover

(Mk 2:23-28 & Mt 12:1-8 & Lk 6:1-5) Jerusalem to Galilee

^2:23 And it happened, that he was going on the Sabbath day through the grainfields; and his disciples began to make their way picking the heads.^2:24 And the Pharisees said to him, Behold, why do they do what is not lawful on the Sabbath day?^2:25 And he said to them, Did you* never read what David did, when he had need and was hungry? He and those who were with him?^2:26 How he entered into the house of God in the days of Abiathar the high-priest and ate the show-bread, which it is not lawful to eat except for the priests and gave also to those who were with him? {1Sam. 21:6}^2:27 And he said to them, The Sabbath was made because of man and not man because of the Sabbath:^2:28 so-then the Son of Man is lord even of the Sabbath.

<2> 2:1- that* IS: at home.

<3> 2:19- that* IS: companions of the bridegroom.
