Jesus healing the servant of a Centurion, by the Venetian artist Paolo Veronese, 16th century. Healing the centurion's servant is one of the miracles performed by Jesus of Nazareth as related in the Gospel of Matthew [1] and the Gospel of Luke [2] (both part of the Christian biblical canon). The story is not recounted in the Gospels of either ...
Luke has the men return to find the servant healed while Matthew has Jesus performing the miracle itself. The verses are different enough that Davies and Allison believe there is no way to reconstruct what the original ending to the Centurion story would have been in Q. [1] The healing used similar language as Matthew 8:3 and Matthew 9:6. [2]
Healing the ear of a servant is one of the miracles of Jesus in the Gospels. [1] Even though the incident of the servant's ear being cut off is recorded in all four gospels, Matthew 26:51; Mark 14:47; Luke 22:51; and John 18:10–11; the servant and the disciple are named as Malchus and Simon Peter only in John.

Afterwards, the disciples ask Jesus why they were unable to cure the boy and he explains, 'This kind can come out only through prayer'. Some sources add, 'and through fasting'. [4]
The official, based in Capernaum, may have been in service to either the tetrarch Herod Antipas or the emperor. It is not clear whether he is a Jew or Gentile. [3]The healing of the official's son follows Jesus' conversation with the Samaritan woman regarding "a spring of water welling up to eternal life” and serves as a prelude to Jesus' statement when questioned after healing the paralytic ...

The woman described in the miracle, the Syrophoenician woman (Mark 7:26; [8] Συροφοινίκισσα, Syrophoinikissa) is also called a "Canaanite" (Matthew 15:22; [9] Χαναναία, Chananaia) and is an unidentified New Testament woman from the region of Tyre and Sidon.
The synoptic gospels portray Jesus exorcising at sunset just after he had healed the mother of Peter's wife, in Matthew 8:16–17, Mark 1:32–34 and Luke 4:40–41. [ 1 ] According to the Gospels, after Jesus had healed the mother of Peter's wife, when evening came, many who were demon-possessed were brought to him, and he drove out the ...
