The Ten Lepers New Testament Stories, Chapter 37
Jesus went to a small town where He saw ten lepers. • Lepers are people who are sick. • Their sickness causes them to get terrible sores all over their bodies.
Doctors could not help the lepers. • People were afraid to go near them. • They did not want to get sick too.
The lepers asked Jesus to heal them. • They knew He could make their sores go away. • Jesus wanted them to be well.
He told them to go and show themselves to the priests. • On their way to the priests, the ten lepers were healed. Their sores were gone.
One of the lepers knew that Jesus had healed them. • He went back to thank Him. • Jesus asked where the other nine lepers were.
Jesus told the leper who had thanked Him that the leper’s faith had made him well. • They had not come back.
