Matthew arranged stories of common themes together.  And here I am thinking I am so smart for seeing the connection amongst them.  Matthew Chapter 9 is full of miracles.  The testimonies these folks walked away with…

  1. Paralytic man healed – This story is better told in Mark 2, in my opinion.  A paralyzed man is brought to Jesus by his friends.  Jesus acknowledges their faith and forgives the man’s sins and heals him. 
  2. Matthew becomes a disciple.  This is noteworthy because he was a tax collector.  He was not popular among his fellow Jews.  
  3. A ruler of the synagogue, Jairus, asks for Jesus’s help.  This took a lot.  We already know how these synagogue folks were feeling about Jesus.  They were not fans.  
  4. On the way to Jairus’s house a woman who had been bleeding for 12 years reaches out her hand to just touch the hem of his garment.  She is healed immediately.  And she knows it.  Jesus knows it.  (Mark 5)
  5. Mute man speaks.  The man was mute because of a demon and Jesus cast it out.
