Here in chapter 2, Mark continues to reveal that Jesus is not just any ordinary man, nor is he just another prophet, but is, in fact, God in the flesh. When a paralytic man is brought to Jesus for miraculous healing, Jesus does not heal him at first, but instead tells the man that his sins are forgiven. When the scribes present begin thinking about how only God can forgive sins, Jesus reveals his divinity threefold by perceiving their thoughts, by confirming that he has such authority, and by miraculously healing the man to attest to his power. This chapter also begins to reveal that the scribes and the Pharisees despise Jesus, questioning his authority, his purity, his devotion, and his commitment to God’s law.
