Luke 17:13 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 17:13

And they lifted up their voices
Together, and cried aloud, being at a distance, that they might be heard; as well as to express their vehement desire, and great importunity to be cleansed; see ( Judges 9:7 ) .

And said, Jesus, Master;
or "Rabbi, Jesus", thou great Master in Israel; who art a teacher come from God, and who dost surprising miracles, and art able to cure us:

have mercy on us;
and cleanse us from our leprosy; we believe thou art able, if thou wilt; show compassion to us, miserable objects, as they were; their faith was the same with that of the other leper, in ( Matthew 8:2 ) .

Luke 17:13 In-Context

11 It happened that as he made his way toward Jerusalem, he crossed over the border between Samaria and Galilee.

12 As he entered a village, ten men, all lepers, met him. They kept their distance

13 but raised their voices, calling out, "Jesus, Master, have mercy on us!"

14 Taking a good look at them, he said, "Go, show yourselves to the priests."

15 One of them, when he realized that he was healed, turned around and came back, shouting his gratitude, glorifying God.
