On His journey from Galilee through Samaria to Jerusalem, passing through Jericho, Jesus encountered ten lepers as He entered a village. These outcasts, nine Jews and one Samaritan, united by their shared suffering, approached Him from a distance to avoid spreading their disease. Their pitiful appearance reflected their hopelessness, with ragged clothes, messy hair, slumped shoulders, and drooping heads. When the lepers cried out for mercy, Jesus commanded them to go and show themselves to the priests. As they obeyed and went, they were cleansed of their leprosy. This healing, often described as cleansing due to the uncleanness of the disease, brought them freedom from social restrictions, allowing them to reunite with family, work, and associate freely. One of the healed lepers, upon seeing his healing, returned to Jesus, glorifying God with a loud voice. He fell at His feet, giving thanks, demonstrating his zeal and lack of shame in honoring God publicly. Jesus noted that this man's faith had made him whole, indicating that his return to praise and thank God brought an added blessing beyond physical healing.
