Luke 7:10 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 7:10

And they that were sent
Both the elders of the Jews, and the friends of the centurion:

returning to the house;
of the centurion, where his servant lay, and from whence they came:

found the servant whole that had been sick;
for he was healed directly, as soon as the centurion had expressed his faith, and Christ had declared that it should be according to it, ( Matthew 8:13 ) .

Luke 7:10 In-Context

8 I'm a man under orders; I also give orders. I tell one soldier, 'Go,' and he goes; another, 'Come,' and he comes; my slave, 'Do this,' and he does it."
9 Taken aback, Jesus addressed the accompanying crowd: "I've yet to come across this kind of simple trust anywhere in Israel, the very people who are supposed to know about God and how he works."
10 When the messengers got back home, they found the servant up and well.
11 Not long after that, Jesus went to the village Nain. His disciples were with him, along with quite a large crowd.
12 As they approached the village gate, they met a funeral procession - a woman's only son was being carried out for burial. And the mother was a widow.
