Of the kingdom of God, and the coming of the Son of Man. As He entered one of the villages This phrase sets the scene for the encounter between Jesus and the ten lepers. The Greek word for "entered" (εἰσερχομαι, eiserchomai) implies a purposeful movement, suggesting that Jesus was on a mission, as He often was during His ministry. The mention of "one of the villages" indicates a specific, yet unnamed, location, emphasizing the universality of Jesus' ministry. Villages in the time of Jesus were small, close-knit communities, often isolated from larger cities, which may have been why lepers, who were ostracized due to their condition, were found there.

These met him somewhere outside the village-separated by the fact of their unhappy malady, leprosy, from their fellows, in accordance with the old Mosaic Law of Leviticus 13:46, "He is unclean: he shall dwell alone; without the camp shall his habitation be." These had no doubt heard of the many lepers who had been healed by the Galilaean Teacher who was then drawing nigh the village. They did not venture to approach him, but they attracted his attention with their hoarse, sad cry. The legal distance which these unfortunates were compelled to keep from passers-by was a hundred paces. He does not seem to have touched them, or talked with them, but with an impressive majesty bids them go and return thanks for their cure, which his will had already accomplished. They evidently believed implicitly in his healing power, for without further question they went on their way as he had commanded, and as they went the poor sufferers felt a new and, to them, a quite strange thrill of health course through their veins; they felt their prayer was granted, and that the fell disease had left them. They were not sent to the capital city; any priest in any town was qualified to pronounce on the completeness of a cure in this malady (Leviticus 14:2-32).Parallel Commentaries ...
