Shownotes

The words of Jesus were intentional, exceptional and powerful. Consider the source! Indeed, Jesus healed lepers as a witness to his Jewish brethren. The strangers, Samaritan, Roman centurion, Syrophoenician received the word of God with faith and enthusiasm.  There was a glaring lack of faith of the Jewish brethren toward both John and Jesus. They were looking for a "certain" Messiah and no amount of evidence was able to open the closed eyes of the Priests, Pharisees, and Sadducees.

78: Jesus Heals Ten Lepers

Luke 17:11-19

Jesus passed through Samaria and Galilee on a journey to Jerusalem. As he came to a village, ten men who were lepers stood off from him and cried out, saying:

            “Jesus, Master, have mercy on us.”

            Jesus answered them, saying:

            “Go show yourselves unto the priests.”

            As they went, they were healed. One of them, a Samaritan, when he realized that he was healed, returned to Jesus, fell on his face at Jesus’ feet, giving thanks and glorifying God in a loud voice.

            Jesus, seeing him, asked:

            “Were there not ten cleansed? But where are the nine? There are not found that returned to give glory to God, save this stranger.”

            Then Jesus said to the grateful Samaritan:

            “Airse, go thy way. Thy faith hath made thee whole.”
