A Reflection: The Story of The Ten Lepers 14 December 2014 Pastor Jun Mendoza

Jesus encountered ten lepers as he traveled between Samaria and Galilee. When the lepers called out for help, Jesus told them to show themselves to the priests and they were cleansed of their leprosy. However, only one leper returned to thank Jesus - a Samaritan. Jesus questioned why only one had come back to give praise, highlighting the foreigner's faith.

THE STORY OF THE TEN LEPERS


14 December 2014
Pastor Jun Mendoza

Now on his way to Jerusalem, Jesus traveled along the border between Samaria and
Galilee. 12 As he was going into a village, ten men who had leprosy met him. They stood at a
distance 13 and called out in a loud voice, Jesus, Master, have pity on us!
11

When he saw them, he said, Go, show yourselves to the priests. And as they went, they were
cleansed.
14

One of them, when he saw he was healed, came back, praising God in a loud voice. 16 He threw
himself at Jesus feet and thanked himand he was a Samaritan.
15

Jesus asked, Were not all ten cleansed? Where are the other nine? 18 Has no one returned to
give praise to God except this foreigner? 19 Then he said to him, Rise and go; your faith has
made you well.

As Jesus was on his way to Jerusalem, he travelled along the border between Samaria and
Galilee. As he was going into a village, ten men who had leprosy met him. During those times
leprosy was a contagious disease. People who had this disease must wear torn clothes, leave their
hair uncombed, cover the lower part of their face, and call out unclean. As long as they have
the disease they shall be considered unclean and they must live away from others.
As the ten lepers saw Jesus, they stood at a distance and they shouted Jesus, Master,
have pity on us! The lepers
