\subsection{Mark 2}

|
\subsubsection{Healing and Forgiving a Paralytic}
|
|
\VS{1} And having entered again into \Kapernaoum during the day it was heard that he is home.
|
|
\VS{2} And many were gathered so as no longer to be having space for holding [any] not even at the door,
|
|
and he was speaking the word\fnLogos{} to them.
|
|
\VS{3} And [some] come bearing to him [a] paralytic being carried by four.
|
|
\VS{4} And not being able to bring [the paralytic] to him because of the crowd,
|
|
they unroofed the roof where he was,
|
|
and having dug [it] out\footnote{Roofs were made of packed earth over branches/reeds}
|
|
they lower the stretcher on which the paralytic was lying sick.
|
|
\VS{5} And \Iesous having seen their trust\fnPistis{} he says to the paralytic:
|
|
Child, your sins are forgiven.
|
|
\VS{6} But some of the scribes were there sitting and reasoning in their hearts:
|
|
What does this [one] speak in this manner?
|
|
\VS{7} [God]-slanderer! Who is able to be forgiving sins except one: God?
|
|
\VS{8} And immediately \Iesous having known in his spirit they are reasoning in this manner among themselves,
|
|
he says to them:
|
|
Why do you reason these [things] in your hearts?
|
|
\VS{9} What is easier to say to the paralytic:
|
|
Your sins are forgiven,
|
|
or to say:
|
|
Rise and take up your stretcher and be walking?
|
|
\VS{10} But in order that you may know that the Son of Humanity\fnAnthropos{}
|
|
has authority to be forgiving sins upon the earth\fnGe{} ---
|
|
he says to the paralytic:
|
|
\VS{11} To you I say, Arise, take up your stretcher and be departing to your house.
|
|
\VS{12} And he was raised and immediately having taken up the stretcher
|
|
he went out in front of all so that all were amazed and were glorifying God saying that:
|
|
We never saw [anything] like this!
|
|
|
|
\subsubsection{The Call of \Levi: Eating with Sinners}
|
|
\VS{13} And he went out along the sea, and all the crowd was coming after him,
|
|
and he was teaching them.
|
|
\VS{14} And [while] passing by he saw \Levi the [son] of \Alpheus sitting at the toll-house,
|
|
and he says to him: Be following me.
|
|
And after rising he followed him.
|
|
\VS{15} And it comes to pass he [was] reclining in his house and many tax-collectors and sinners
|
|
were gathered with \Iesous and his disciples,
|
|
for there were many, and they were following him.
|
|
\VS{16} And the scribes from the Pharisees, having seen that he is eating with tax-collectors and sinners,
|
|
were saying to his disciples, [Why] is he eating with tax-collectors and sinners?
|
|
\VS{17} And \Iesous having heard [it] he says to them:
|
|
The strong have no need of a physician, but [rather] those having [it] badly;
|
|
I did not come to call just [ones], but sinners.
|
|
|
|
\subsubsection{The Superiority of the New}
|
|
\VS{18} And the disciples of \John and the Pharisees were fasting;
|
|
and they come and say to him:
|
|
Why do the disciples of \John and the disciple of the Pharisees fast,
|
|
but the disciples with you do not fast?
|
|
\VS{19} And \Iesous says to them:
|
|
Are the sons of the bridegroom able, while the bridegroom is with them, to be fasting?\fnGrammarIndicatesNo{}
|
|
As much time they have the bridegroom with them, they are not able to be fasting.
|
|
\VS{20} But days will come when the bridegroom be taken away from them,
|
|
and then they will fast in that day.
|
|
\VS{21} No one sews [a] patch from [a] piece of unfulled%
|
|
\footnote{"Unfulled" — cloth straight from the loom that hasn't yet gone through fulling (the washing/shrinking/finishing process)}
|
|
cloth upon [an] old garment;
|
|
but if not, the new pulls its fullness from the old, and it becomes [a] worse tear.
|
|
\VS{22} And no one puts new wine into old skins; but if not, the new
|
|
will rend the skins and the wine pour out%
|
|
\footnote{``pour out" \sinaiticus{}W \vulgate{} \koine{} most; omit: BD}
|
|
and the skins perish.
|
|
But [one puts] new wine into fresh skins.
|
|
|
|
\subsubsection{Lord of the Sabbaths}
|
|
\VS{23} And it came to pass he in the Sabbaths was passing through the cornfields,
|
|
and his disciples began to be making [a] path [while] plucking off ears of corn.
|
|
\VS{24} And the Pharisees were saying to him:
|
|
See [here], why do they do on the Sabbaths what is not permitted?
|
|
\VS{25} And he says to them: Have you not read what \David did, when he had need,
|
|
and he himself was hungry and those with him?
|
|
\VS{26} How he went into the house of God in the time of Abiath\'{a}r [the] high priest%
|
|
\footnote{The story being cited is 1 Sam. 21:1-6. Except that the priest who gives
|
|
\David the `Bread of the Setting Forth' is Ahimelech, Abiathar's father.
|
|
Abiathar didn't become high prieset until later,
|
|
after Saul had Ahimelech and the other priests at Nob massacered (I Sam 22).}
|
|
and they ate the `Bread of the Setting Forth'%
|
|
\footnote{Twelve loaves displayed before God on a table in the sanctuary, replaced weekly.
|
|
The loaves taken off were to be eaten only by the priests, in a holy place (Lev.24:5--9).}
|
|
that is not permissible to eat except [for] the priests,
|
|
and also gave [some] to those being with him?
|
|
\VS{27} And he was saying to them:
|
|
The Sabbath came into being because of human[s], and not human[s] because of the Sabbath,
|
|
\VS{28} so that the Son of Humanity\fnAnthropos{} is Lord even of the Sabbath.
