Through the two influential Protestant reformers Martin Luther´s and JohnCalvin's readings, I intend to explore the view of disability and sin within theChristian tradition. One of the biblical stories that has been read andinterpreted in the light of disability issues is the well-known episode in the NewTestament, which is often called "the paralytic". In both the Old and NewTestaments, there are several places that may indicate a connection betweendisability and sin, and through thoughts of human sin as a common thread Ipresent how the two Bible readers read the pericopes.
