Context — The Faith of the Centurion

1When Jesus had concluded His discourse in the hearing of the people, He went to Capernaum.

2There a highly valued servant of a centurion was sick and about to die. 3When the centurion heard about Jesus, he sent some Jewish elders to ask Him to come and heal his servant.

Cross References

	Reference	Text (BSB)
1	Matthew 8:5–13	When Jesus had entered Capernaum, a centurion came and pleaded with Him, “Lord, my servant lies at home, paralyzed and in terrible agony.” “I will go and heal him,” Jesus replied. The centurion answered, “Lord, I am not worthy to have You come under my roof. But just say the word, and my servant will be healed. For I myself am a man under authority, with soldiers under me. I tell one to go, and he goes; and another to come, and he comes. I tell my servant to do something, and he does it.” When Jesus heard this, He marveled and said to those following Him, “Truly I tell you, I have not found anyone in Israel with such great faith. I say to you that many will come from the east and the west to share the banquet with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven. But the sons of the kingdom will be thrown into the outer darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.” Then Jesus said to the centurion, “Go! As you have believed, so will it be done for you.” And his servant was healed at that very hour.
2	Luke 7:1–10	When Jesus had concluded His discourse in the hearing of the people, He went to Capernaum. There a highly valued servant of a centurion was sick and about to die. When the centurion heard about Jesus, he sent some Jewish elders to ask Him to come and heal his servant. They came to Jesus and pleaded with Him earnestly, “This man is worthy to have You grant this, for he loves our nation and has built our synagogue.” So Jesus went with them. But when He was not far from the house, the centurion sent friends with the message: “Lord, do not trouble Yourself, for I am not worthy to have You come under my roof. That is why I did not consider myself worthy to come to You. But just say the word, and my servant will be healed. For I myself am a man under authority, with soldiers under me. I tell one to go, and he goes; and another to come, and he comes. I tell my servant to do something, and he does it.” When Jesus heard this, He marveled at the centurion. Turning to the crowd following Him, He said, “I tell you, not even in Israel have I found such great faith.” And when the messengers returned to the house, they found the servant in good health.
3	Matthew 7:28–29	When Jesus had finished saying these things, the crowds were astonished at His teaching, because He taught as one who had authority, and not as their scribes.

Luke 7:1 Summary

This verse tells us that after Jesus finished teaching the people, He went to the city of Capernaum. Capernaum was a major city in the region and an important place for Jesus' ministry, as seen in Luke 4:31 and Matthew 4:13. By going to Capernaum, Jesus was showing His love and care for the people who lived there, just like He shows love and care for us today, as seen in John 3:16 and Matthew 9:36. As we read this verse, we can remember that Jesus is always with us, just like He was with the people of Capernaum, and we can trust in His love and care for us, as promised in Matthew 28:20 and Hebrews 13:5.

Matthew Poole's Commentary on Luke 7:1

LUKE CHAPTER 7 Christ admires the centurion’ s singular faith, and healeth his absent servant. He raiseth to life the widow’ s son at Nain, and sendeth back the messengers of John with an account of the miracles they had seen wrought by him. His testimony of John. He reproveth the perverseness of the people, who were not to be won either by the manners of John or himself. He suffereth his feet to be washed and anointed by a woman who had been a sinner; and in a parable showeth that even the worst of sinners may be forgiven upon the terms of a hearty and sincere repentance. Ver. 1-10. See Poole on "", and following verses to , where we have considered all the differences between Matthew’ s and Luke’ s relation of this miracle. We have in it remarkable, 1. The humanity of the centurion to his servant, to teach us Christians to do the like. 2. The profitableness of good works: the centurion’ s love to the Jews in building them a synagogue gains their applications to Christ for him. 3. The humility of the centurion: he did not think himself worthy to appear in Christ’ s presence, nor to receive Christ into his house. 4. His faith in Christ’ s Divine power and goodness. It doth not appear that he believed that Christ was the eternal Son of God, but he did at least believe that he was clothed with a Divine power, or had a Divine power communicated to him from God, by which he was able, at a distance, and by no more than a word, without application of human rational means, to command off the distemper of his servant. 5. The power of faith in God, and its acceptableness to him. Christ doth not only effect the cure, but predicate his faith to be greater than he had found amongst the generality of the Jewish nation, who went for the only people of God at that day, and had much more light, and means to discern that Christ was sent of God for the good of men, than this Roman captain had.

Trapp's Commentary on Luke 7:1

1 Now when he had ended all his sayings in the audience of the people, he entered into Capernaum. Ver. 1. See Matthew 8:5.

Ellicott's Commentary on Luke 7:1

VII. (1) In the audience of the people.—Better, in the hearing, or, in the ears, the older sense of “audience” having become obsolete. He entered into Capernaum.—The sequence of events is the same as that in Matthew 8:5-13; and, as far as it goes, this is an element of evidence against the conclusion that the Sermon on the Mountain and that on the Plain were altogether independent. Looking, however, at the manifest dislocation of facts in one or both of the Gospels, St. Matthew placing between the Sermon on the Mount and the healing of the centurion’s servant, the healing of the leper, which St. Luke gives in Luke 5:12-16, the agreement in this instance can hardly be looked at as more than accidental.

Adam Clarke's Commentary on Luke 7:1

CHAPTER VII. Christ heals the servant of a centurion, who is commended for his faith, 1-10. Raises a widow's son to life at Nain, 11-17. John Baptist hears of his fame, and sends two of his disciples to inquire whether he was the Christ, 18-23. Christ's character of John, 24-30. The obstinate blindness and capriciousness of the Jews, 31-35. A Pharisee invites him to his house, where a woman anoints his head with oil, and washes his feet with her tears, 36-38. The Pharisee is offended 39. Our Lord reproves him by a parable, and vindicates the woman, 40-46; and pronounces her sins forgiven, 47-50. NOTES ON CHAP. VII.
