Matthew 14 - Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible

Jesus healing the sick.

Whithersoever Christ went, he was doing good. They brought unto him all that were diseased. They came humbly beseeching him to help them. The experiences of others may direct and encourage us in seeking for Christ. As many as touched, were made perfectly whole. Those whom Christ heals, he heals perfectly. Were men more acquainted with Christ, and with the diseased state of their souls, they would flock to receive his healing influences. The healing virtue was not in the finger, but

in their faith; or rather, it was in Christ, whom their faith took hold upon.
