Luke: Trading Places - Luke 5:12-16

As with the other Gospels, Luke also recounts the story of the leper whom Jesus healed when he approached him. In Jewish historical context, lepers were exiled into their own designated camps and yet the faith that the leper had a about Jesus being the healer and the risk he took to see him within the city, where he was banned from being in, was more than enough proof for the Son to heal his leprosy. In the end, we are all like the leper ourselves going through the process of forgiveness that Christ provides--and yet, he spends solitude with God through all this, not drawing the attention to him but to the Father.
