after some days, it was reported
that he was at home. And many were
gathered together, so that there
was no more room, not even at the
door. And he was preaching the
word to them. And they came,
bringing to him a paralytic
carried by four men. And when they
could not get near him because of
the crowd, they removed the roof
above him, and when they had made
an opening, they let down the bed
on which the paralytic lay. And
when Jesus saw their faith, he
said to the paralytic, “Son, your
sins are forgiven.” ...

him aside from the crowd
privately, he put his fingers into
his ears, and after spitting
touched his tongue. And looking up
to heaven, he sighed and said to
him, “Ephphatha,” that is, “Be
opened.” And his ears were opened,
his tongue was released, and he
spoke plainly. And Jesus charged
them to tell no one. But the more
he charged them, the more
zealously they proclaimed it. ...

him, he asked him, “Do you see
anything?” And he looked up and
said, “I see men, but they look

him to his home, saying, “Do not
even enter the village.” ...

you give a feast, invite the poor,
the crippled, the lame, the blind,

to be healed?” ...

“Rabbi, who sinned, this man or
his parents, that he was born
blind?” Jesus answered, “It was
not that this man sinned, or his
parents, but that the works of God
might be displayed in him. We must
work the works of him who sent me
while it is day; night is coming,
when no one can work. As long as I
am in the world, I am the light of
the world.” Having said these
things, he spat on the ground and
made mud with the saliva. Then he
anointed the man's eyes with the
mud ...

hearts through the Holy Spirit who
has been given to us.

upon me.
