Description

Matthew 8: 16-17
16 When the even was come, they brought unto him many that were possessed with devils: and he cast out the spirits with his word, and healed all that were sick: 17 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying, Himself took our infirmities, and bare our sicknesses.

Mark 1: 32-34
32 And at even, when the sun did set, they brought unto him all that were diseased, and them that were possessed with devils. 33 And all the city was gathered together at the door. 34 And he healed many that were sick of divers diseases, and cast out many devils; and suffered not the devils to speak, because they knew him.

Luke 4: 40-41
40 Now when the sun was setting, all they that had any sick with divers diseases brought them unto him; and he laid his hands on every one of them, and healed them. 41 And devils also came out of many, crying out, and saying, Thou art Christ the Son of God. And he rebuking them suffered them not to speak: for they knew that he was Christ.

Key Takeaways from this Scripture

  • Fulfillment of Prophecy: Matthew 8:17 references the fulfillment of Isaiah’s prophecy, showing that Jesus’ healing ministry was a part of God’s redemptive plan foretold in the Old Testament.
  • Public Ministry: The scenes described in these passages were public events, with whole towns gathering to witness Jesus’ healing power. This not only brought physical healing but also served as a powerful testimony to His divine authority and mission.
  • Spiritual Authority: Jesus not only healed physical ailments but also cast out demons, demonstrating His authority over both the physical and spiritual realms. His refusal to let the demons speak underscores His control and the importance of timing in revealing His identity as the Messiah.
