Lucas 7:2 In-Context

1 Tendo terminado de dizer tudo isso ao povo, Jesus entrou em Cafarnaum.

2 Ali estava o servo de um centurião, doente e quase à morte, a quem seu senhor estimava muito.

3 Ele ouviu falar de Jesus e enviou-lhe alguns líderes religiosos dos judeus, pedindo-lhe que fosse curar o seu servo.

4 Chegando-se a Jesus, suplicaram-lhe com insistência: “Este homem merece que lhe faças isso,

5 porque ama a nossa nação e construiu a nossa sinagoga”.
