The miracles of Jesus part 2 The Leper
2
Mark 140 Now a leper came to Him, imploring Him,
kneeling down to Him and saying to Him, "If You
are willing, You can make me clean." 41 Then
Jesus, moved with compassion, stretched out His
hand and touched him, and said to him, "I am
willing be cleansed." 42 As soon as He had
spoken, immediately the leprosy left him, and he
was cleansed. 43 And He strictly warned him and
sent him away at once, 44 and said to him, "See
that you say nothing to anyone but go your way,
show yourself to the priest, and offer for your
cleansing those things which Moses commanded, as
a testimony to them." 45 However, he went out
and began to proclaim it freely, and to spread
the matter, so that Jesus could no longer openly
enter the city, but was outside in deserted
places and they came to Him from every direction.

Leprosy, also known as Hansens disease, as
defined today, is the name for disease processes
caused by the microorganism Mycobacterium leprae.
There are two types a. The lepromatous type
begins with brownish-red spots on the face, ears,
forearms, thighs and/or buttocks which later
become thickened nodules and, losing their skin
covering, become ulcers (sores) with subsequent
loss of tissue and then contraction and
deformity. It was apparently the lepromatous type
that was chiefly in view in the Biblical cases of
true leprosy. b. The tuberculoid type is
characterized by numbness of an affected area of
skin and deformity such as fingers like claws
resulting from paralysis and consequent muscle
wasting (atrophy). The advanced forms of leprosy
are not described in Leviticus 13, presumably
because this chapter is concerned with early
diagnosis. Advanced leprosy would only be seen in
isolation outside the camp.

to the humble."

This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well
pleased (Mt. 317 175) Hear Him He speaks on
behalf of the Father (John 149).

James 413 Come now, you who say, "Today or
tomorrow we will go to such and such a city,
spend a year there, buy and sell, and make a
profit" 14 whereas you do not know what will
happen tomorrow. For what is your life? It is
even a vapor that appears for a little time and
then vanishes away. 15 Instead you ought to say,
"If the Lord wills, we shall live and do this or
that."
16
Psalm 191The heavens declare the glory of God
And the firmament shows His handiwork. 2 Day
unto day utters speech, And night unto night
reveals knowledge.

Do you trust in the Lords power, as did this

So when he had received food, he was
strengthened. Then Saul spent some days with the
disciples at Damascus. 20 Immediately he
preached the Christ in the synagogues, that He is
the Son of God. 21 Then all who heard were
amazed, and said, "Is this not he who destroyed
those who called on this name in Jerusalem, and
has come here for that purpose, so that he might
bring them bound to the chief priests?" 22 But
Saul increased all the more in strength, and
confounded the Jews who dwelt in Damascus,
proving that this Jesus is the Christ.
23
Hebrews 415 For we do not have a High Priest who
cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but was in
all points tempted as we are, yet without sin.
16 Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of
grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to
help in time of need.
