What did a typical Jewish house look like at the time of Jesus? We continue the study of the Gospel of Mark in Greek by analyzing Mark 2:2. Jesus has come back to his house in Capharnaum (probably Peter's house) and the news has spread. A lot of people have come to see him preaching the gospel but there is not enough room in the house. But how big was a Jewish house at that time? What was its structure? It is important to understand how Jewish houses were built to correctly understand what Mark is trying to describe. This understanding will become critical for the right comprehension of the following verses.
