Mark:1:40-45




nsb@Mark:1:40 @ A man with leprosy knelt in front of Jesus and begged to be healed. »If you want to, you can make me well,« he said.

nsb@Mark:1:41 @ Moved with compassion Jesus touched him. »I want to,« he said. »Be healed!«

nsb@Mark:1:42 @ Instantly the leprosy disappeared and man was healed.

nsb@Mark:1:43 @ Jesus sent him away and warned him. »Go directly to the priest and let him examine you.

nsb@Mark:1:44 @ »Do not talk to anyone along the way. Take the offering the Law of Moses requires for those healed of leprosy. That way everyone will have proof of your healing.«

nsb@Mark:1:45 @ But the man gave a public account of his healing everywhere he went. Soon crowds surrounded Jesus and he could not enter a town publicly. He had to stay in secluded places and people continued to come to him.
