A Day of Healing

29

As soon as Jesus and His companions had left the synagogue, they went with James and John to the home of Simon and Andrew.

30

Simon’s mother-in-law was sick in bed with a fever, and they promptly told Jesus about her.

31

So He went to her, took her by the hand, and helped her up. The fever left her, and she began to serve them.

32

That evening, after sunset, people brought to Jesus all who were sick and demon-possessed,

33

and the whole town gathered at the door.

34

And He healed many who were ill with various diseases and drove out many demons. But He would not allow the demons to speak, because they knew who He was.

35

Early in the morning, while it was still dark, Jesus got up and slipped out to a solitary place to pray.

36

Simon and his companions went to look for Him,

37

and when they found Him, they said, “Everyone is looking for You!”

38

But Jesus answered, “Let us go on to the neighboring towns so I can preach there as well, for that is why I have come.”

39

So He went throughout Galilee, preaching in their synagogues and driving out demons.
