Jesus finds a greater faith in the centurion; |
heals his servant, being absent; |
raises from death the widow's son at Nain; |
answers John's messengers with the declaration of his miracles; |
| τυφλοὶ ἀναβλέπουσιν, χωλοὶ περιπατοῦσιν, |
| λεπροὶ καθαρίζονται και κωφοὶ ἀκούουσιν, |
| νεκροὶ ἐγείρονται, πτωχοὶ εὐαγγελίζονται· |
| 23 καὶ μακάριος ἐστιν ὃς ἐὰν μὴ σκανδαλισθῇ ἐν ἐμοί. |
testifies to the people what opinion he held of John; |
| ἰδοὺ ἀποστέλλω τὸν ἄγγελον μου πρὸ προσώπου σου, |
| ὃς κατασκευάσει τὴν ὁδόν σου ἔμπροσθεν σου. |
compares this generation to the children in the marketplaces, |
| ἠυλήσαμεν ὑμῖν καὶ οὐκ ὠρχήσασθε, |
| ἐθρηνήσαμεν καὶ οὐκ ἐκλαύσατε. |
and allowing his feet to be washed and anointed by a woman who was a sinner, |
he shows how he is a friend to sinners, to forgive them their sins, upon their repentance. |
