Jesus Heals a Paralytic

Mark 2:1-12

The Sacred Geometry Story

The scene is a house in Capernaum. The characters are Jesus, a crowd, a paralytic child, four bed carriers, and some scribes.

I have tried to strip the verses of superfluous conjunctions, awkward passive verbs, and participles. Included are the literal prepositions attached to verbs that you just don't see in regular bible translations. They may sound strange but Mark wrote it that way for good reason. The koine Greek text also leaves out many words that must be supplied by the translator (always in parenthesis).
