Matthew 8:17

Isaiah
Sickness and healingProphecySuffering

15 So He touched her hand, and the fever left her, and she got up and began to serve them.

16 When evening came, many who were demon-possessed were brought to Jesus, and He drove out the spirits with a word and healed all the sick.

This was to fulfill what was spoken through the prophet Isaiah: “He took on our infirmities and carried our diseases.”

18 When Jesus saw a large crowd around Him, He gave orders to cross to the other side of the sea.

19 And one of the scribes came to Him and said, “Teacher, I will follow You wherever You go.”
