Lucas 4:27 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 4:27

And many lepers were in Israel
The leprosy was a disease very common among the Jews; hence those laws concerning it in ( Leviticus 13:1-14:57 ) and it seems by this account, that it was very prevalent,

in the time of Eliseus the prophet;
that is, the prophet Elisha; who, by the Septuagint, in 1Ki 19:16
and, in other places, is called "Elisaie": and none of them was cleansed; from their leprosy, by any direction of the prophet,

saving Naaman, the Syrian:
or but Naaman, who was not an Israelite, but a Syrian: he was cleansed and cured of his leprosy, being ordered by Elisha to dip himself seven times in Jordan, which he did, and was healed, ( 2 Kings 5:14 ) .

Lucas 4:27 In-Context

25 Em verdade vos digo que muitas viúvas havia em Israel nos dias de Elias, quando céu se fechou por três anos e seis meses, de sorte que houve grande fome por toda a terra;
26 e a nenhuma delas foi enviado Elias, senão a uma viúva em Serepta de Sidom.
27 Também muitos leprosos havia em Israel no tempo do profeta Elizeu, mas nenhum deles foi purificado senão Naamã, o sírio.
28 Todos os que estavam na sinagoga, ao ouvirem estas coisas, ficaram cheios de ira.
29 e, levantando-se, expulsaram-no da cidade e o levaram até o despenhadeiro do monte em que a sua cidade estava edificada, para dali o precipitarem.
