(Show All Books | Show All Chapters)
This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Wherefore neither thought I myself worthy to come unto thee (dio oude emauton ēxiōsa pros se elthein). Not in Matthew because he represents the centurion as coming to Jesus.
Speak the word (eipe logōi). As in Mat 8:8. Second aorist active imperative with instrumental case, speak with a word.
My servant shall be healed (iathētō ho pais mou). Imperative first aorist passive, let be healed. Pais literally means “boy,” an affectionate term for the “slave,” doulos (Luk 7:2), who was “dear” to him.
