1 Coming down and to him from the mountain, followed after him crowds great. |
|
2 And lo, a leper coming prostrated to him, saying: O sir, if thou wilt, thou art able me to cleanse. |
|
3 And putting forth the hand, he touched him the Jesus, saying: I will, be thou cleaned.
And immediately was cleaned of him the leprosy. |
|
4 And says to him the Jesus: See no one thou tell; but go, thyself show to the priest, and offer the gift, which commanded Moses, for a witness to them.
|
See thou tell no man – Jesus was not trying to gain fame. Instead He waited until the Father's good time for the people to recognize Him as the Messiah.
Show thyself unto the priest.. for a testimony against them – It was different for those who sat in Moses' seat. They should have recognized His position by what He was doing.
