“Chapter 30: The Ten Lepers,”
New Testament Stories, 86
 |
|
Jesus went to a small town. He saw ten sick men. They were lepers. They had sores all over their bodies. Their skin was falling off.
|
 |
|
Doctors could not help the lepers. People did not like to go near them. They did not want to get sick too.
|
 |
|
The lepers asked Jesus to heal them. They knew that Jesus could make their sores go away.
|
 |
|
Jesus listened to the lepers. He wanted them to be well. He told them to go to the priests. The lepers obeyed Jesus. They went to the priests.
|
 |
|
On their way to the priests, the ten lepers were healed. Their sores were gone. Jesus had healed them.
|
 |
|
One of the lepers came back to thank Jesus. He knew Jesus had healed them. He knelt down. He thanked Jesus for making him well. Jesus asked where the other nine lepers were. They had not come back to thank him. Jesus said the leper’s faith had made him well.
