2:1–3:6 Five controversy stories (2:1-12, 13-17, 18-22, 23-28; 3:1-6), grouped by their common theme, reveal Jesus’ great authority and the leaders’ hostility toward him. 2:1-12 This controversy story is also a miracle story, which links it to the previous collection (1:21-45). 2:1 back home: See Matt 4:13. The crowd’s size shows Jesus’ popularity.
