 The Holy Gospel According to Matthew 8

The Cleansed Leper

Mark 1:40-45; Luke 5:12-14

1 And when he came down from the mountain, a great multitude followed him.

2 And, behold, a leper came and worshiped him, saying, “Lord, if you are willing, you can make me clean.”

3 And Jesus stretched out his hand and touched him, saying, “I am willing; be clean.” And immediately his leprosy was cleansed.

4 Then Jesus said to him, “See that you tell no one; but go, show yourself to the priest, and offer the gift that Moses commanded, as a testimony to them.”
