Luke 4:38-44

Jesus Heals Many

38 ¹And he arose and left the synagogue and entered Simon’s house. Now ²Simon’s mother-in-law was ill with a high fever, and they appealed to him on her behalf.

39 And he stood over her and ³rebuked the fever, and it left her, and immediately she rose and began to serve them.

40 Now when the sun was setting, all those who had any who were sick with various diseases brought them to him, and ⁴he laid his hands on every one of them and healed them.

41 ⁵And demons also came out of many, ⁶crying, “You are ⁷the Son of God! ” But he rebuked them and ⁸would not allow them to speak, because they knew that he was ⁹the Christ.

Jesus Preaches in Synagogues

42 ¹⁰And when it was day, he departed and went ¹¹into a desolate place. And ¹²the people sought him and came to him, and would have kept him from leaving them,

43 but he said to them, ¹³“I must ¹⁴preach the good news of the kingdom of God to the other towns as well; for I was sent for this purpose. ”

44 And he was preaching ¹⁵in the synagogues of Judea. ^[a]
