And he put forth his hand, and touched him, saying,
I will: be clean.
And immediately the leprosy departed from him.
All Commentaries on Luke 5:13 Go To Luke 5
Ephrem The Syrian
AD 373
Go, show yourself. This was for the sake of the priests. For the leper was afraid to touch him lest he defile him. But the Lord touched him to show him that he would not be defiled, he, at whose rebuke the defilement fled from the defiled one. Commentary on Tatian’s Diatessaron
