Contextual Overview

14 And Iesus returned, by the power of the spirite, into Galilee: & there went a fame of hym, throughout all the region rounde about. 15 And he taught in their synagogues, & was commended of all men. 16 And he came to Nazareth, where he was nursed: and, as his custome was, he wet into the synagogue on the Sabboth day, and stoode vp for to reade. 17 And there was deliuered vnto hym the booke of the prophete Esaias: And whe he had opened the booke, he founde the place where it was written, 18 The spirite of the Lord vpon me, because he hath annoynted me, to preache the Gospel to the poore he hath sent me, to heale the broken hearted, to preache deliueraunce to the captiue, & recouering of syght to the blynde, freely to set at libertie them that are bruised: 19 And to preache the acceptable yere of the Lorde. 20 And he closed the booke, and gaue it agayne to the minister, and sate downe: And the eyes of all them that were in ye synagogue, were fastened on hym. 21 And he began to say vnto the: this day is this scripture fulfilled in your eares. 22 And all bare him witnesse, & wondred at ye gratious wordes whiche proceaded out of his mouth. And they sayde, is not this Iosephes sonne? 23 And he saide vnto them: Ye wyll vtterly say vnto me this prouerbe, phisition heale thy selfe: Whatsoeuer we haue heard done in Capernau, do ye same here lykewyse in thine owne countrey.

Eliseus: 1 Kings 19:19-21, Elisha

saving: Matthew 12:4, John 17:12

Naaman: 2 Kings 5:1-27, Job 21:22, Job 33:13, Job 36:23, Daniel 4:35

Reciprocal: Genesis 25:20 - the Syrian Leviticus 14:3 - be healed 1 Kings 19:16 - Elisha 2 Kings 5:14 - and he was clean Matthew 8:2 - a leper

Gill's Notes on the Bible

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 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.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Many lepers - For an account of the leprosy see the notes at Matthew 8:1.

Time of Eliseus - Time of Elisha. The word “Eliseus” is the Greek way of writing the word Elisha, as Elias is of Elijah.

Saving Naaman the Syrian - The account of his cure is contained in 2 Kings 5:0.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 27. None of them was cleansed — This verse is to be understood as the 26th; for Naaman, being a Syrian, was no leper in Israel.

The meaning of these verses is, God dispenses his benefits when, where, and to whom he pleases. No person can complain of his conduct in these respects, because no person deserves any good from his hand. God never punishes any but those who deserve it; but he blesses incessantly those who deserve it not. The reason is evident: justice depends on certain rules; but beneficence is free. Beneficence can bless both the good and the evil; justice can punish the latter only. Those who do not make this distinction must have a very confused notion of the conduct of Divine Providence among men.
