Levi is called; eating with tax collectors and sinners

레위를 부르시고 세리와 죄인들과 함께 잡수심

Mark 2:13–17: he goes out again by the seaside and teaches all the multitude that comes to him. As he passes by, he sees Levi the son of Alphaeus sitting at the tax office and says to him, “Follow me,” and he arises and follows him. He is reclining at the table in his house, and many tax collectors and sinners sit down with Jesus and his disciples. When the scribes and the Pharisees see that he is eating with the sinners and tax collectors, they ask his disciples why he eats and drinks with them; Jesus hears it and says, “Those who are healthy have no need for a physician, but those who are sick. I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.”
