Matthew 8:16-17
New English Translation
16 When it was evening, many demon-possessed people were brought to him. He drove out the spirits with a word,[a] and healed all who were sick.[b] 17 In this way what was spoken by the prophet Isaiah was fulfilled:[c]
“He took our weaknesses and carried our diseases.”[d]
Footnotes
- Matthew 8:16 sn The expression with a word underscores Jesus’s authority over the demonic spirits, but also recalls the centurion’s comment on authority in Matt 8:8.
- Matthew 8:16 sn Note how the author distinguishes healing from exorcism here, implying that the two are not identical.
- Matthew 8:17 tn Grk “spoken by Isaiah the prophet was fulfilled, saying.” The participle λέγοντος (legontos) is redundant and has not been translated.
- Matthew 8:17 sn A quotation from Isa 53:4.
