Context of Luke 5:24
22But Jesus, knowing their reasonings, answering said to them, Why reason ye in your hearts? 23which is easier, to say, Thy sins are forgiven thee; or to say, Rise up and walk? But that ye may know that the Son of man has power on earth to forgive sins, he said to the paralysed man, I say to thee, Arise, and take up thy little couch and go to thine house. 25And immediately standing up before them, having taken up that whereon he was laid, he departed to his house, glorifying God. 26And astonishment seized all, and they glorified God, and were filled with fear, saying, We have seen strange things to-day.
