1 Matthew, one of Jesus’

disciples, went
everywhere with Jesus
and saw Him heal many
people. He wrote down
what he saw in the Book
of Matthew.

2 Jesus healed sick people

wherever He went. A
man who was sick with
leprosy asked him, ‘Lord
if you choose to, you can
make my skin like new.’

3 In those days, people did

not go near anyone with
leprosy, but Jesus
touched the man and
straight away he was
healed. ‘Go to the
temple and give a gift of
thanks to God,’ Jesus
said.
4 A Centurion, who was a
Roman soldier in the
town of Capernaum, had
a servant who was very
sick. ‘I am not worthy for
you to come into my
house,’ he told Jesus.

5 ‘Just give the command

and my servant will be
healed.’ Jesus saw that
he truly believed and
sent him home. He
found his servant had
been healed at that very
moment.

6 While Jesus was still in

Capernaum, He went to
Peter’s house and found
Peter’s mother-in-law
was sick in bed with a
fever. Jesus reached out
and touched her hand.

7 Straight away the fever

left her. She got out of
bed, completely well,
and prepared a lovely
meal for Jesus and His
friends.

8 News of the miracles

spread. That evening,
many sick people came
to Jesus to be healed,
just as the prophet
Isaiah had written, so
long ago.
