NETBible	Which is easier,¹ to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven’ or to say, ‘Stand up and walk’?
NET Notes	¹sn Which is easier is a reflective kind of question. On the one hand to declare sins are forgiven is easier, since one does not need to see it, unlike telling a paralyzed person to walk. On the other hand, it is harder, because for it to be true one must possess the authority to forgive the sin.
