The Compassion and Power of Jesus: Healing the Leper

After Jesus ends the sermon on the Mount, he walks down from the mountain and is immediately met by a leper asking Jesus to heal him. For the next 2 chapters, Matthew records for us several miraculous healings that Jesus performed during his earthly ministry. We see His compassion, mercy, and power on full display during these stories, but we are ultimately pointed to the greatest healing of all that every human being needs - healing and salvation from sin. Jesus is a Healer, but He is also even more than that! Let’s study these incredible stories together!
