The gain matrix here highlights that considering the healing of the paralytic and the mountain teaching as uniform overlooks the distinct incentives of each event. The miracle offered immediate gratification, a tangible proof that generated quick adherence, while the teaching required a cognitive investment and a delayed gain for the audience. If the goal is to ensure the engagement of the faithful, the dominant strategy for an audience seeking instant proof is not the same as for those seeking deep understanding. The Nash equilibrium for each situation is different because the payoffs perceived by participants fundamentally diverge. For example, a spectacular healing moment captures the attention of the masses, while a speech develops the loyalty of those willing to meditate on the Kingdom of God.
