Episode description
The crowds had been astonished that Jesus taught with such authority and now they witnessed his authority in what he did. In this passage we see three different people healed and in each case we see Jesus compassion for those involved. It cumulates in verse 17 where Matthew quotes Isa53v4, ‘He took our illnesses and bore our diseases.’ All this points to who Jesus is and what he came to do. The other thing to mention is that Jesus marvels at the ‘faith’ of the roman centurion.
