Hank: The invitation of Matthew's gospel here is Christ has power to heal and help anyone regardless of the ailment, disease, challenge, struggle. He can heal men, women, child, Gentile and Jew from anything; he controls death, devils, disease and the weather, nature. Hank: Some have suggested that what we find in Matthew 8 and 9 are 10 miracles that are designed to be reminiscent of the 10 miracles of Moses. But with that, I do think that there's an important point there that you're making - keeping in mind that Matthew's primary audience is likely a Jewish Christian audience.
