Matthew 9
1. Jesus heals a paralytic
9. calls Matthew from the receipt of custom;
10. eats with tax collectors and sinners;
14. defends his disciples for not fasting;
20. cures the sick woman;
23. raises Jairus' daughter from death;
27. gives sight to two blind men;

36. and has compassion on the multitude.














And the man got up
This phrase signifies the immediate and complete healing of the paralytic, demonstrating Jesus' authority over physical ailments. In the context of first-century Jewish culture, paralysis was often seen as a result of sin or divine judgment. The act of getting up symbolizes not only physical healing but also spiritual restoration. This miracle is a testament to Jesus' power and authority, fulfilling prophecies such as Isaiah 35:6, which speaks of the lame leaping like a deer. It also prefigures the resurrection power of Christ, as seen in His own resurrection and the raising of others, such as Lazarus in John 11.

and went home.
The man's return home signifies a restoration to his community and family, which would have been significant in a culture where family and community ties were central. This act also serves as a public testimony to the miracle, as those who knew him would witness the change. The homecoming can be seen as a metaphor for spiritual return and reconciliation with God, echoing themes found in the parable of the prodigal son in Luke 15. The physical journey home parallels the spiritual journey of faith and redemption, emphasizing the holistic nature of Jesus' healing ministry.

Authority of Jesus
Jesus' ability to heal the paralytic underscores His divine authority, not only over physical ailments but also over sin. This challenges us to trust in His power in all areas of our lives.

Immediate Obedience

We can picture to ourselves the exultant joy of the soul freed from the burden of its sins, and rejoicing in the new vitality of the body.

Verse 7. - And he arose, and departed to his house. Three stages, rising, leaving the crowded court, home-coming. Healed in soul as in body, he is fully obedient.
