Mark 2 is the second chapter of the Gospel Of Mark in the New Testament of the Christian Bible . THE PARALYTIC It begins with the story of , yet the story in the synoptics takes place in Capernaum . All the synoptics agree that the man was paralyzed and then the ''teachers of the law'' got mad at Jesus because he said he forgave the man's Sins . The story in John has the ''people'' getting mad at him because he did this on the Sabbath . CALLING OF MATTHEW Jesus, during a talk, finds , not Sacrifice ." between the two sentences in Mark's version. Luke says "...but sinners to Repentance ." All three synoptics have this occur after the healing of the paralyzed man NEW WINESKINS See Also: The Patch and the Wineskins Having been asked why it is that John The Baptist 's followers Fast , but neither Jesus nor his followers do, Jesus justifies his behaviour, and that of his followers by giving the Parable of The Patch And The Wineskins . He speaks of himself as the bridegroom and his disciples as his guests. This is a very famous . Jesus discusses fasting, brides and grooms in saying 104. THE SABBATH The doctrine of a new way is laid out further. Jesus and his disciples pick some grain on the Sabbath, and the Pharisees accuse him of breaking the Sabbath, to which he replies "The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath." Most Scholars agree that the Sabbath and proper observance of Jewish law in general were a point of contention between Jesus and the Jewish religious authorities. A minority position, held by scholars such as E. P. Sanders , is that these do not constitute proof of a rejection of the law. There were debates within early Christianity, such as at the Council Of Jerusalem between Paul and James over just how much of the Jewish law one must obey. These stories are almost entirely the same in Luke 5-6 , and in Matthew except for the story of the Sabbath, which occurs in Matthew at Chapter 12 . They do not occur in John except for perhaps the paralyzed man. REFERENCES
