John 4:47 Besought him that he would . . . heal his son. Note that: (1) The nobleman has already "faith as a grain of mustard seed" (Matthew 17:20Luke 17:6) in Jesus; (2) that faith moves him to seek the aid of Jesus; (3) to make sure of his help he comes in person, instead of sending servants; (4) while he thought he could heal his son, he did not comprehend that it could be done unless Jesus came to where he was; (5) he thought it would be too late if the son died before his coming. His faith way very imperfect.
