Mark 2:1-4 ▼

1 After some days He entered Capernaum again, and it soon became known that He was at home;

2 and such numbers of people came together that there was no longer room for them even round the door. He was speaking His Message to them,

3 when there came a party of people bringing a paralytic--four men carrying him.

4 Finding themselves unable, however, to bring him to Jesus because of the crowd, they untiled the roof just over His head, and after clearing an opening they lowered the mat on which the paralytic was lying.
