Jesus
left the synagogue and went to the home of Simon. Now Simon's
mother-in-law was suffering from a high fever, and they asked
Jesus to help her. So he bent over her and rebuked the fever, and
it left her. She got up at once and began to wait on them.
When the sun was setting, the
people brought to Jesus all who had various kinds of sickness, and
laying his hands on each one, he healed them. Moreover, demons
came out of many people, shouting, “You are the Son of God!”
But he rebuked them and would not allow them to speak, because
they knew he was the Christ.
At daybreak Jesus went out to a solitary place. The people were
looking for him and when they came to where he was, they tried to
keep him from leaving them. But he said, “I must preach the good
news of the kingdom of God to the other towns also, because that
is why I was sent.” And he kept on preaching in the synagogues
of Judea.
