SEV Biblia, Chapter 9:8

Y la multitud, vindolo, se maravill, y glorific a Dios, que había dado tal potestad a los hombres.

Clarke's Bible Commentary - Matthew 9:8

Verse 8. When the multitudes saw it, they
marveled] Instead of eqaumasan, wondered, the Codex Vatic. and Cod. Bezae, with several other MSS. and versions, have efobhqhsan, feared. In the Gothic, and one copy of the Itala, both readings are conjoined, thus: And the multitudes seeing it, wondered and feared, and glorified God. Wondered at the miracle; feared to offend against such power and goodness; and glorified God for the works of mercy which he had wrought.

That which to the doctors of the law, the worldly-wise and prudent, is a matter of scandal, is to the humble an occasion of glorifying the Most High. Divine things make a deeper impression on the hearts of the simple multitude than on those of the doctors, who, puffed up with a sense of their own wisdom, refuse to receive the truth as it is in Jesus. The conversion of one rebellious soul is a greater miracle, and more to be admired than all that can be wrought on inanimate creatures. He who sees a sinner converted from the error of his way sees a miracle wrought by eternal power and goodness. May such miracles be multiplied!


John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 8. But when the multitude saw it , etc.] The miracle that was wrought; when they saw the man take up his bed, and carry it home, which was done by Christ, as a proof of his having power to forgive sin, they marvelled, and glorified God : they were struck with amazement and astonishment at the sight, it being what was strange and unusual; the like to which they had never seen before, nor heard of: and concluding it to be more than human; they ascribed it to God; they praised, and adored the divine goodness, which had given such power unto men ; of working miracles, healing diseases, and delivering miserable mortals from such maladies, as were otherwise incurable; still looking upon Christ as a mere man, by whom God did these things; not knowing yet the mystery of the incarnation, God manifest in the flesh.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 1-8 - The
faith of the friends of the paralytic in bringing him to Christ was a strong faith; they firmly believed that Jesus Christ both coul and would heal him. A strong faith regards no obstacles in pressin after Christ. It was a humble faith; they brought him to attend of Christ. It was an active faith. Sin may be pardoned, yet the sicknes not be removed; the sickness may be removed, yet the sin not pardoned but if we have the comfort of peace with God, with the comfort of recovery from sickness, this makes the healing a mercy indeed. This i no encouragement to sin. If thou bring thy sins to Jesus Christ, as the malady and misery to be cured of, and delivered from, it is well; but to come with them, as thy darlings and delight, thinking still to retain them and receive him, is a gross mistake, a miserable delusion The great intention of the blessed Jesus in the redemption he wrought is to separate our hearts from sin. Our Lord Jesus has perfec knowledge of all that we say within ourselves. There is a great deal of evil in sinful thoughts, which is very offensive to the Lord Jesus Christ designed to show that his great errand to the world was, to sav his people from their sins. He turned from disputing with the scribes and spake healing to the sick man. Not only he had no more need to be carried upon his bed, but he had strength to carry it. God must be glorified in all the power that is given to do good.
