Man Lowered Through The Roof Bible Story

Make two small holes in the roof.

Man lowered through the roof bible story.

Tape 2 strips of wool on back of man. When they couldn t get near jesus they went to the roof and uncovered the roof. Glue flaps on house to make 3d. When the man s friends carried him to the house where jesus was staying they found the house to be packed with people wanting to hear jesus and be healed by him.

When they had broken a space big enough in the roof the four men let their friend down through the roof right in front of jesus. English standard version but finding no way to bring him in because of the crowd they went up on the roof and let him down with his bed through the tiles into the midst before jesus. So the four men went up on the roof removed some tiles and lowered the paralyzed man on his bedroll into the middle of the crowd right in front of jesus. So they went up to the roof and took off some tiles.

Jesus saw the faith of the four men and said to the paralyzed man friend your sins are forgiven. The four men carried their friend up to the roof and made an opening in the roof. The account of the healing of the paralyzed man in mark 2 1 12 contains a number of lessons for growing christians. When they had broken a space big enough through the roof the four men let the man down through the roof.

The house had a flat roof and outside stairs leading up to the roof. The friends climbed up an outside staircase and dug a hole through the roof. You and i have friends who need to come to jesus. Allow enough wool so the man can be lowered.

Jesus was impressed by the faith of these men. Thread wool through holes in roof and tie. When jesus saw their faith he told the paralyzed man that his sins were forgiven. When jesus saw how much faith these four men had he not only healed the paralyzed man he even forgave him of all his sins.

Then they lowered the sick man on his mat down into the crowd right in front of jesus. The man is literally let down through the roof under the careful control of his concerned friends and into a situation controlled by the lord jesus christ. Since they could not get him to jesus because of the crowd they made an opening in the roof above jesus by digging through it and then lowered the mat the man was lying on. Cut out the house and man on mat.
