Context of Luke 5:26

24But 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. Astonishment took hold of them, and they glorified God and all were filled with awe, saying, “We’ve seen incredible things today!” 27After these things, Yeshua went out and observed a tax collector named Levi, sitting at the tax booth. He said to him, “Follow Me.” 28And leaving everything, he got up and followed Him.
