Commentary on Luke 5:12

Theological / Devotional

In a certain city. [The First Leper, Luke 5:12-16 = Matt. 8:2-4 = Mark 1:40-45. Major comment: Mark.] Literally, “in one of the cities.”

Full of leprosy. Luke, a physician, is the only gospel writer to note the advanced stage of the disease. This condition made the cure even more remarkable.
