orthjbc Luke:5:17-26
orthjbc@Luke:5:17 @ And it came about, on one of the yamim when he was teaching Torah, that the Perushim and Sofrim who had come from every shtetl of the Galil and Yehudah and Yerushalayim, were sitting down. And the power of Hashem was with Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach to bring refu'ah.
orthjbc@Luke:5:18 @ And-- hinei!--bnei Adam were carrying on a mat a man who had been paralyzed and they were seeking to carry in the paralytic and to place him before Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach.
orthjbc@Luke:5:19 @ And not having found by what way they might carry him because of the multitude, and having gone up onto the roof, they let the man down with the mat through the tiles so that he was right in the center in front of Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach.
orthjbc@Luke:5:20 @ And having seen their emunah, Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach said, "Ish (note:)man(:note), your chatta'im have received selicha."
orthjbc@Luke:5:21 @ And the Sofrim began to raise kashes (note:)questions(:note), and also the Perushim, saying, "Who is this who is speaking Chillul Hashem gidduf blasphemy? Who is able to grant selicha to chatta'im but Hashem alone?" [Yeshayah strkjv@43:25]
orthjbc@Luke:5:22 @ But Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach having had da'as of their thoughts, said to them in reply, "Why are you reasoning in your levavot?
orthjbc@Luke:5:23 @ "Which is easier: to say, `Your chatta'im have been granted selicha,' or to say, `Get up and walk?'
orthjbc@Luke:5:24 @ "But in order that you may have da'as that the Ben HaAdam has samchut (note:)authority(:note) on ha'Aretz to grant selicha to chatta'im," Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach said to the one having been paralyzed, "To you I say, get up, pick up your mat, and go to your bais."
orthjbc@Luke:5:25 @ And at once the man arose in front of them, picked up the mat upon which he was lying, and departed to his bais, shouting, "Baruch Hashem!"
orthjbc@Luke:5:26 @ And astonishment seized everyone, and they were shouting "Baruch Hashem!" And they were filled with yirat Shomayim, saying, "Hayom our eyes have beheld nifla'ot!"
