Matthew 14:35

33 Then those who were in the boat¹ came and worshiped Him, saying, “Truly ^aYou are the Son of God.”

Many Touch Him and Are Made Well

34 ^aWhen they had crossed over, they came¹ to the land of Gennesaret.

35 And when the men of that place recognized Him, they sent out into all that surrounding region, brought to Him all who were sick,

36 and begged Him that they might only ^atouch the hem of His garment. And ^bas many as touched it were made perfectly well.

Matthew 14:35

The men of that place had knowledge of him - i.e. They knew him again. They had already seen his miracles; and now they collect all the diseased people they can find, that he may have the same opportunity of showing forth his marvellous power, and they of being the instruments of relieving their friends and neighbors.

They brought unto him all that were diseased - And Jesus received and healed every man and woman of them. And is not the soul, in the sight of God, of more value than the body? and will he withhold his healing power from the former, and grant it so freely to the latter? This cannot be. Let a man come himself to Jesus, and he shall be saved and afterwards let him recommend this Christ to the whole circle of his acquaintance, and they, if they come, shall also find mercy.
