Lukas 7:2 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 7:2

And a certain centurion's servant
The same that Matthew makes mention of, ( Matthew 8:5 Matthew 8:6 ) , (See Gill on Matthew 8:5). (See Gill on Matthew 8:6).

who was dear unto him;
to the centurion, being an honest, upright, faithful, and obliging servant; as Tabi was to Rabban Gamaliel, of whom his master said F12,

``Tabi my servant, is not as other servants, (hyh rvk) , "he is upright".''

was sick:
of a palsy; see ( Matthew 8:6 ) ,

and ready to die;
in all appearance his case was desperate, and there was no help for him by any human means, which makes the following cure, the more remarkable.

Lukas 7:2 In-Context

1 Nachdem er aber alle seine Worte vor den Ohren des Volkes vollendet hatte, ging er hinein nach Kapernaum.
2 Eines gewissen Hauptmanns Knecht aber, der ihm wert war, war krank und lag im Sterben.
3 Als er aber von Jesu hörte, sandte er Älteste der Juden zu ihm und bat ihn, daß er käme und seinen Knecht gesund mache.
4 Als diese aber zu Jesu hinkamen, baten sie ihn angelegentlich und sprachen: Er ist würdig, daß du ihm dies gewährest;
5 denn er liebt unsere Nation, und er selbst hat uns die Synagoge erbaut.
