## Mark 2:14-15 in Context (Verses 11–18 KJV)
 
 [11 ](/kjv/mark/2/11) I say unto thee, Arise, and take up thy bed, and go thy way into thine house.
 
 [12 ](/kjv/mark/2/12) And immediately he arose, took up the bed, and went forth before them all; insomuch that they were all amazed, and glorified God, saying, We never saw it on this fashion.
 
 [13 ](/kjv/mark/2/13) And he went forth again by the sea side; and all the multitude resorted unto him, and he taught them.
 
 [14 ](/kjv/mark/2/14) And as he passed by, he saw Levi the *son* of Alphæus sitting at the receipt of custom, and said unto him, Follow me. And he arose and followed him.
 
 [15 ](/kjv/mark/2/15) And it came to pass, that, as Jesus sat at meat in his house, many publicans and sinners sat also together with Jesus and his disciples: for there were many, and they followed him.
 
 [16 ](/kjv/mark/2/16) And when the scribes and Pharisees saw him eat with publicans and sinners, they said unto his disciples, How is it that he eateth and drinketh with publicans and sinners?
 
 [17 ](/kjv/mark/2/17) When Jesus heard *it*, he saith unto them, They that are whole have no need of the physician, but they that are sick: I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.
 
 [18 ](/kjv/mark/2/18) And the disciples of John and of the Pharisees used to fast: and they come and say unto him, Why do the disciples of John and of the Pharisees fast, but thy disciples fast not?
