Jesus Heals a Man with Leprosy

When Jesus came down from the mountainside, large crowds followed him. A man with leprosy

came and knelt before him and said, “Lord, if you are willing, you can make me

clean.” Jesus reached out his hand and touched the man. “I am willing,”

he said. “Be clean!” Immediately he was cleansed of his leprosy. Then Jesus said

to him, “See that you don’t tell anyone. But go, show yourself to

the priest and offer the gift Moses commanded, as a testimony to them.”
