Jesus Healed 10 Lepers

Jesus Healed 10 Lepers


In today's bible story, we will discover the amazing miracle of how Jesus healed 1o lepers.  In Bible times, a leper had a skin disease that resulted in scaly, rough skin (Blueletterbible.org, nd).

In bible times, Hebrews who had the disease had to live away from other people.

The disease did not go away and no one could cure it in those times. Therefore, people were afraid of lepers.


Read on to learn more.


Discover how Jesus healed 10 lepers


One day, Jesus was going to Jerusalem. He had to pass between Samaria and Galilee. 






As He entered one of the villages, Jesus was met by ten men who had a disease called leprosy.

Their skin was rough and scaly and they felt very bad about their condition.  

The men stood at a distance because they were unclean. People with this condition could not mingle with others. They had to cover their lips and loudly cry "unclean, unclean."

Desperate to be healed, the lepers raised their voices and said, ‘Jesus, Master, have mercy on us.’ 

When Jesus saw them He said, ‘Go and show yourselves to the priests.’



According to the law, the men would be declared clean by the priests after their skin was inspected.

By faith, the men began to take the route leading to the priest.   As they went along, they were cleansed. 

One of them, seeing that he was healed, turned back, praising God with a loud voice.  Maybe he had been inspecting his skin. 

What do you think?




The former leper fell down at Jesus' feet with his face to the ground. He gratefully thanked Jesus for healing him.

This man was a Samaritan and the other nine were Jews.




Jesus was amazed that the nine lepers from His own country had not returned to give Him thanks!

Jesus asked in astonishment, 

‘Weren't ten men cleansed? Where are the other nine?

Why didn't the Jews return to give thanks to God? Why did the foreigner alone give thanks?"

Jesus said to the man, ‘get up and go your way. Your faith has made you well.’




Jesus healed 10 lepers Luke 17: 11 - 19 (NASB)


11 While He was on the way to Jerusalem, He was passing between Samaria and Galilee.

12 As He entered a village, ten leprous men who stood at a distance met Him;

13 and they raised their voices, saying, ``Jesus, Master, have mercy on us!"

14 When He saw them, He said to them, ``Go and show yourselves to the priests." And as they were going, they were cleansed.

15 Now one of them, when he saw that he had been healed, turned back, glorifying God with a loud voice,

16 and he fell on his face at His feet, giving thanks to Him. And he was a Samaritan.

17 Then Jesus answered and said, ``Were there not ten cleansed? But the nine--where are they?

18 ``Was no one found who returned to give glory to God, except this foreigner?"

19 And He said to him, ``Stand up and go; your faith has made you well."



Jesus healed  ten lepers meaning


Leprosy was a disease in which the skin of the affected person became scaly and rough. One of the related scriptures talked about scales falling from the eyes of Apostle Paul when Ananias laid hands on him (Acts 9: 18). 

Leprosy is like the disease of the spirit that is called sin.  Every human was born with the sin disease and needs to be cleansed, like the lepers.

People with sin cannot see what God is saying because their god satan has blinded their eyes.

The blood of Jesus is the only way to see and to be cleansed from sin.

To be cleansed, we need to believe that Jesus is the Son of God and that He died to save us from our sins.

Believing must be followed by confession of sins and turning away.

Turning away from sin means to repent and do them no more.

In this excellent analysis, Dr. Jay Schamberg shows that the leprosy of bible and modern times is not the same disease.

He reveals that bible days leprosy could have been psoriasis or vitiligo  and drectly related to punishment from God for transgressings  certain laws.

Jesus The Nazarene Prophecy Fulfilled

Jesus The Nazarene Prophecy Fulfilled


Matthew 2:23 KJV


And he came and dwelt in a city called Nazareth: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophets, He shall be called a Nazarene.


HE SHALL BE CALLED A NAZARENE TEXT

ROOT WORD OF NAZARENE


Where is the Prophecy?


It was given about Samson, a picture of deliverance:: 


the child shall be a Nazarite unto God from the womb: and he shall begin to deliver Israel out of the hand of the Philistines.


Judges 13 5 and 7; 16: 17

For, lo, thou shalt conceive, and bear a son; and no razor shall come on his head: for the child shall be a Nazarite unto God from the womb: and he shall begin to deliver Israel out of the hand of the Philistines.

Then the woman came and told her husband, saying, A man of God came unto me, and his countenance was like the countenance of an angel of God, very terrible: but I asked him not whence he was, neither told he me his name:

But he said unto me, Behold, thou shalt conceive, and bear a son; and now drink no wine nor strong drink, neither eat any unclean thing: for the child shall be a Nazarite to God from the womb to the day of his death.


Judges 16

17 That he told her all his heart, and said unto her, There hath not come a razor upon mine head; for I have been a Nazarite unto God from my mother's womb: if I be shaven, then my strength will go from me, and I shall become weak, and be like any other man.


The Prophecy was fulfilled because Jesus would save His people from their sins just as Samson would deliver his people from the Philistines


Matthew 1: 21
And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name Jesus: for he shall save his people from their sins.



The Prophecy was fulfilled because Joseph went to Nazareth to live as instructed by God in order to shield Jesus from the Herod family

Matthew 2

19 But when Herod was dead, behold, an angel of the Lord appeareth in a dream to Joseph in Egypt,

20 Saying, Arise, and take the young child and his mother, and go into the land of Israel: for they are dead which sought the young child's life.

21 And he arose, and took the young child and his mother, and came into the land of Israel.

22 But when he heard that Archelaus did reign in Judaea in the room of his father Herod, he was afraid to go thither: notwithstanding, being warned of God in a dream, he turned aside into the parts of Galilee:

23 And he came and dwelt in a city called Nazareth: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophets, He shall be called a Nazarene.


The Prophecy was fulfilled because He was called Jesus of Nazareth, Jesus Christ of Nazareth


NAZARETH MEANS THE GUARDED ONE - JESUS WAS HIDDEN IN NAZARETH

Nazarene means of Nazareth. 


The Prophecy was fulfilled because His followers were called the sect of the Nazarene 

Acts 24: 5
