• PER063 The healing of a leper.

    This article explores Jesus' healing of a leper, illustrating his compassion and messianic authority, and raises the issue of tensions with the religious authorities in Galilee.

    Luke 5.12-14 (King James Version) :
    And it came to pass, when he was in a certain city, behold a man full of leprosy: who seeing Jesus fell on his face, and besought him, saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.And he put forth his hand, and touched him, saying, I will: be thou clean. And immediately the leprosy departed from him.And he charged him to tell no man: but go, and shew thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing, according as Moses commanded, for a testimony unto them.
