John 4:52

52 interrogabat ergo horam ab eis in qua melius habuerit et dixerunt ei quia heri hora septima reliquit eum febris

John 4:52 Meaning and Commentary

John 4:52

Then inquired he of them the hour
He did not at all hesitate about the truth of it, or was in any surprise upon it; but that he might compare things together, he asked the exact time,

when he began to amend;
or grow better; for he seemed to think, that his recovery might be gradual, and not all at once, as it was:

and they said unto him, yesterday at the seventh hour;
which was one o'clock in the afternoon:

the fever left him;
entirely at once, so that he was perfectly well immediately.

John 4:52 In-Context

50 dicit ei Iesus vade filius tuus vivit credidit homo sermoni quem dixit ei Iesus et ibat

51 iam autem eo descendente servi occurrerunt ei et nuntiaverunt dicentes quia filius eius viveret

52 interrogabat ergo horam ab eis in qua melius habuerit et dixerunt ei quia heri hora septima reliquit eum febris

53 cognovit ergo pater quia illa hora erat in qua dixit ei Iesus filius tuus vivit et credidit ipse et domus eius tota

54 hoc iterum secundum signum fecit Iesus cum venisset a Iudaea in Galilaeam
