What does the Bible say about Jesus healing the paralytic?

Answered in 3 sources

The Bible describes how Jesus healed a paralytic, showing His authority to forgive sins and perform miracles.

In Luke 5:17-26, we see the story of Jesus healing a paralytic who was brought to Him by his friends. This passage highlights three key aspects: Jesus' power to forgive sins, His ability to read the thoughts of men, and His miraculous healing. When the friends could not enter due to the crowd, they took initiative, demonstrating their earnestness and faith by lowering the man through the roof to reach Jesus. This act of faith led to the miraculous healing, affirming that Jesus is indeed God with the authority to forgive sins and heal. The crowd was astonished at what they witnessed, which led them to glorify God.
