Context of Luke 5:24
22But when Jesus perceived their thoughts, he answering said to them, Why reason ye in your hearts? 23Which is easier, to say, Thy sins are forgiven thee; or to say, Rise and walk? But that ye may know that the Son of man hath authority upon earth to forgive sins, (he said to the sick with the palsy,) I say to thee, Arise, and take up thy couch, and go into thy house. 25And immediately he arose before them, and took up what he had been laying on, and departed to his own house, glorifying God. 26And they were all amazed, and they glorified God, and were filled with fear, saying, We have seen strange things to day.
