Jesus Knew their Hostile Thoughts Excerpt Immediately  ( euthys ;  cf .  1:10 )  Jesus  perceived  in His spirit  ( inwardly ; cf .  14:38 ) their hostile thoughts  and He  confronted them directly with pointed counterquestions (a rhetorical device in Rabbinic debate; cf .  3:4 ;  11:30 ;  12:37 ). The scribes expected a physical healing, but Jesus pronounced the man’s  sins  … forgiven.  They probably thought that a pronouncement of forgiveness was  easier  than one of healing because healing was visible and immediately verifiable.  More Grassmick, John D. “ Mark .”   The Bible Knowledge Commentary: An Exposition of the Scriptures .

The scribes expected a physical healing, but Jesus pronounced the man’s sins … forgiven. They probably thought that a pronouncement of forgiveness was easier than one of healing because healing was visible and immediately verifiable. Mk 2:10 . This verse presents an interpretive problem due to the awkward change of addressee in the verse’s middle. Jesus seemed to be addressing the scribes ( v. Mk 2:10a ) but there is an abrupt break in the verse after which He addressed the paralytic.
