Λουκᾶν 7:6

Ο δε Ιησους επορευετο μετ' αυτων. Ενω δε απειχεν ηδη ου μακραν απο της οικιας, επεμψε προς αυτον ο εκατονταρχος φιλους, λεγων προς αυτον· Κυριε, μη ενοχλεισαι· διοτι δεν ειμαι αξιος να εισελθης υπο την στεγην μου·

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Then Jesus went with them,.... The elders of the Jews, towards the centurion's house, after hearing their request, and their reasons for it; and that without any reluctancy, he at once complied, made no hesitation, or difficulty about it, but went with them very freely:

and when he was now not far from the house; of the centurion, where his servant lay sick; he having some notice of his coming, and of his being near his house, in his great humility, and being conscious to himself of his unworthiness to have such a person under his roof, sent messengers to prevent him:

the centurion sent friends to him, saying unto him, Lord, trouble not thyself; or do not fatigue thyself by coming to the house, stop, go no further;

for I am not worthy that thou shouldst enter under my roof: he might know full well the law of the Jews, that it was not lawful for a Jew to go into the house of an uncircumcised Gentile; and though he might be a proselyte of righteousness, and so his house was free of entrance; yet considering his own meanness, and the greatness of Christ, who was become so famous for his doctrines and miracles, he thought it too great a stoop for Christ to come into his house, and too high a favour for him to enjoy.
