Mark 2:1 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 2:1

And again he entered into Capernaum after some days
After he had been preaching in the synagogues throughout Galilee, and after he had spent some days in prayer, and private retirement in desert places: and it was noised that he was in, the house; a report was spread throughout the city that he was in the house of Simon and Andrew, where he was before, and where he used to be when in Capernaum.

Mark 2:1 In-Context

1 A few days later, Jesus entered Capernaum again. The people heard that he had come home.

2 So many people gathered that there was no room left. There was not even room outside the door. And Jesus preached the word to them.

3 Four of those who came were carrying a man who could not walk.

4 But they could not get him close to Jesus because of the crowd. So they made a hole in the roof above Jesus. Then they lowered the man through it on a mat.

5 Jesus saw their faith. So he said to the man, "Son, your sins are forgiven."
