Mashal, the deformed man
Crippled healed by Jesus. Jesus places His hands on the deformed shoulders of the man who barely reaches His waist, looks up to Heaven and says in a thunderous voice:
"Rise and walk in the ways of the Lord."[1]"The man feels a jolt and then jumps up like the most perfect man. The change is so sudden that it seems he has shed the springs that kept him in that abnormal position. Now he reaches Jesus’ shoulders. He looks at Him and then falls to his knees, with his mother, and kisses the feet of his Savior."
Character and Appearance
"The runt, that Good, can't even see the Face of Jesus so bent and misshapen the man is. He seems a caricature of a man-chimpanzee or man-chamWater."
