I will come
This phrase reflects the willingness and readiness of Jesus to respond to the needs of those who seek Him. The Greek word for "come" is "ἔρχομαι" (erchomai), which implies movement towards a destination. In the context of the Gospel, it signifies not just physical movement but also the divine initiative to engage with humanity. Historically, this reflects the Jewish understanding of God as one who is actively involved in the lives of His people. Jesus' readiness to "come" underscores His role as the Messiah who bridges the gap between God and man, fulfilling the prophecies of a Savior who would be present among His people.

and heal him
The Greek word for "heal" is "θεραπεύω" (therapeuō), which means to serve, cure, or restore to health. This term is used frequently in the New Testament to describe Jesus' miraculous works, emphasizing His authority over physical and spiritual ailments. The act of healing is not just a physical restoration but also a sign of the in-breaking of God's kingdom, where wholeness and peace are restored. In the historical context, healing was a sign of divine favor and power, and Jesus' ability to heal confirmed His identity as the Son of God. This phrase also highlights the compassionate nature of Jesus, who responds to the faith of the centurion with a promise of restoration, demonstrating that His mission is to bring life and healing to a broken world.

(7) I will come and heal him.--In St. Luke's report the words are omitted, but they are implied in our Lord's act in going with the elders of the synagogue. While He went, some one, it would seem, ran on in front to tell the centurion that his prayer was heard. Then, in his humility, he sends off some of his friends with the message, which St. Matthew records as if it had come from his own lips.

Verse 7. - Matthew only. And Jesus (Revised Version, be) saith unto him, I Will come and heal him. The emphasis is not on the coming, but on the person who comes (ἐγὼ ἐλθών). Observe Christ's perfect self-consciousness. Heal (θεραπεύσω) ; contrast ver. 8.
