Context of Luke 5:24
22Yeshua, knowing their thoughts, replied to them, “Why are you raising questions in your hearts? 23Which is easier, to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven you,’ or to say, ‘Get up and walk’? But so you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to pardon sins….” He said to the paralyzed one, “I tell you, get up and take your cot, and go home!” 25Immediately he got up before them, picked up what he had been lying on, and went home, glorifying God. 26Astonishment took hold of them, and they glorified God and all were filled with awe, saying, “We’ve seen incredible things today!”
