373 B

What happened when Jesus said to the sick man, "Get up, take up your mat, and walk."?

Immediately the man was healed, took up his bed, and walked [5:8; 5:9]

Why did it upset the Jewish leaders when they saw the sick man walking with his bed (mat)?

It upset them because it was a Sabbath and they said the man was not permitted to carry his mat on the Sabbath [5:9; 5:10]
