In Context

40+ 1:40 (40-44) MP: Only God can heal leprosy; really this is not Hansen’s disease but a divine-origin disease called tzara'at in Hebrew. Only God can afflict and only God can remove. Messiah has the authority of God to preform healing works that only God alone can accomplish such as healing disabilities. Examples: God applies the disease at will: (Ex 4:5-8; Num 12:10, 2 King 5:27); God only can heal the disease as He wills (Num 12:13-15; 2 King 5:1-8,5:14-15). (Lev 14:2-3, context ch 13-14)) + 1:40 (40-44) MPr: The Messiah bears the name of “Leprous” or “Leper Scholar” as it says, “smitten by God” (Is 53:4). (Talmud Sanhedrin 98B on Isaiah 53). (Is 53:4) A leper came to him, begging him, kneeling down to him, and saying to him, “If you want to, you can make me clean.”

42When he had said this, immediately the tzara'at ·leprosy· departed from him, and he was made clean.
