Cleansing of the ten lepers (c. 1035-1040) According to Berard Marthaler and Herbert Lockyer, this miracle emphasizes the importance of faith, for Jesus did not say: "My power has saved you" but attributed the healing to the faith of the beneficiaries.
Jesus heals the leper by Alexandre Bida There is some speculation as to whether the illness now called Hansen's disease is the same described in Biblical times as leprosy. [ 4 ] As the disease progresses, pain turns to numbness, and the skin loses its original color and becomes thick, glossy and scaly.
Matthew 4:13 describes Jesus leaving Nazareth and settling in Capernaum Mark 1 :21–28 describes Jesus teaching and healing in the synagogue Luke 4 :16–37 describes Jesus teaching regularly in the synagogue, cf. Luke 4:23, where Jesus, speaking in the Nazareth synagogue, refers to "what has been heard done" in Capernaum.
Pseudo-Chrysostom: Among others who were not able to ascend into the mount was the leper, as bearing the burden of sin; for the sin of our souls is a leprosy.And the Lord came down from the height of heaven, as from a mountain, that He might purge the leprousness of our sin; and so the leper as already prepared meets Him as He came down.
In the Gospel of Luke, Jesus heals ten lepers and only the Samaritan among them thanks him, [19] [9] although Luke 9:51–56 [20] depicts Jesus receiving a hostile reception in Samaria. [7] Luke's favorable treatment of Samaritans is in line with the favorable treatment elsewhere in the book of the weak and of outcasts, generally. [ 21 ]
And Jesus put forth his hand, and touched him, saying, I will; be thou clean. And immediately his leprosy was cleansed. The English Standard Version translates the passage as: And Jesus stretched out his hand and touched him, saying, "I will; be clean." And immediately his leprosy was cleansed.

Gregory the Great: "Miracles also were granted to the holy preachers, that the power they should show might be a pledge of the truth of their words, and they who preached new things should also do new things; wherefore it follows, Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse the lepers, cast out dæmons."
One issue with this verse is that Matthew 8:1 has large crowds surrounding Jesus, which seems to contradict the pledge to secrecy. This verse is paralleled at Mark 1:44-45, but Mark does not begin his narrative with crowds present and the author of Matthew may not have reconciled the verses when copying from Mark. [1]
