Texts -- Mark 2:2-28 (NET)

Context
2:2 So many gathered that there was no longer any room , not even by the door , and he preached the word to them . 2:3 Some people came bringing to him a paralytic , carried by four of them. 2:4 When they were not able to bring him in because of the crowd , they removed the roof above Jesus . Then , after tearing it out , they lowered the stretcher the paralytic was lying on . 2:5 When Jesus saw their faith , he said to the paralytic , “Son , your sins are forgiven .” 2:6 Now some of the experts in the law were sitting there , turning these things over in their minds : 2:7 “Why does this man speak this way ? He is blaspheming ! Who can forgive sins but God alone ?” 2:8 Now immediately , when Jesus realized in his spirit that they were contemplating such thoughts, he said to them , “Why are you thinking such things in your hearts ? 2:9 Which is easier , to say to the paralytic , ‘Your sins are forgiven ,’ or to say , ‘Stand up , take your stretcher , and walk ’? 2:10 But so that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins ,”– he said to the paralytic – 2:11 “I tell you , stand up , take your stretcher , and go home .” 2:12 And immediately the man 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 !”
The Call of Levi; Eating with Sinners
2:13 Jesus went out again by the sea . The whole crowd came to him , and he taught them . 2:14 As he went along , he saw Levi , the son of Alphaeus , sitting at the tax booth . “Follow me ,” he said to him . And he got up and followed him . 2:15 As Jesus was having a meal in Levi’s home , many tax collectors and sinners were eating with Jesus and his disciples , for there were many who followed him . 2:16 When the experts in the law and the Pharisees saw that he was eating with sinners and tax collectors , they said to his disciples , “Why does he eat with tax collectors and sinners ?” 2:17 When Jesus heard this he said to them , “Those who are healthy don’t need a physician , but those who are sick do . I have not come to call the righteous , but sinners .”
The Superiority of the New
2:18 Now John’s disciples and the Pharisees were fasting . So they came to Jesus and said , “Why do the disciples of John and the disciples of the Pharisees fast , but your disciples don’t fast ?” 2:19 Jesus said to them , “The wedding guests cannot fast while the bridegroom is with them , can they? As long as they have the bridegroom with them they do not fast . 2:20 But the days are coming when the bridegroom will be taken from them , and at that time they will fast . 2:21 No one sews a patch of unshrunk cloth on an old garment ; otherwise , the patch pulls away from it , the new from the old , and the tear becomes worse . 2:22 And no one pours new wine into old wineskins ; otherwise , the wine will burst the skins , and both the wine and the skins will be destroyed . Instead new wine is poured into new wineskins .”
Lord of the Sabbath
2:23 Jesus was going through the grain fields on a Sabbath , and his disciples began to pick some heads of wheat as they made their way . 2:24 So the Pharisees said to him , “Look , why are they doing what is against the law on the Sabbath ?” 2:25 He said to them , “Have you never read what David did when he was in need and he and his companions were hungry – 2:26 how he entered the house of God when Abiathar was high priest and ate the sacred bread , which is against the law law for any but the priests to eat , and also gave it to his companions ?” companions ?” 2:27 Then he said to them , “The Sabbath was made for people , not people for the Sabbath . 2:28 For this reason the Son of Man is lord even of the Sabbath .”
