Contextual Overview

1 WHEN he had finished all of these words, in the hearing of the people, Jesus entered Capernaum. 2 Now the servant of a centurion was seriously sick, one who was very dear to him; and he was near death. 3 And when he heard about Jesus, he sent to him Jewish elders, and besought him to come and heal his servant. 4 When they came to Jesus, they begged him earnestly, saying, He is worthy to have this done for him; 5 For he loves our people, and has even built us a synagogue. 6 Jesus went with them. And when he was not far from the house, the centurion sent some of his friends to him, and said, My Lord, do not trouble yourself; for I am not worthy that you should enter under my roof; 7 That is why I was not worthy to come to you; but just say a word and my boy will be healed. 8 For I am also a man in government service, and there are soldiers under my command; and I say to this one, Go, and he goes; and to another, Come, and he comes; and to my servant, Do this, and he does it. 9 When Jesus heard these things, he was amazed at him, and he turned and said to the people who followed him, I say to you, not even in Israel have I found such faith as this. 10 So those who were sent returned to the house, and found the servant who was sick, healed.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Now when he had ended all his sayings,.... That is, when Jesus, as the Persic version expresses it, had finished all the above sayings, doctrines, and instructions; not all that he had to say, for he said many things after this:

in the audience of the people; of the common people, the multitude besides the disciples; and that openly, and publicly, and with a loud and clear voice, that all might hear:

he entered into Capernaum; Jesus entered, as the Syriac version reads, into his own city, and where he had been before, and wrought miracles.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

In the audience of the people - In the hearing of the people.
