14. When Jesus saw the men, he said, “Go and show yourselves to the priests.” While the ten men were going to the priests, they were healed.
15. When one of them saw that he was healed, he went back to Jesus. He praised God loudly.
16. He bowed down at Jesus’ feet and thanked him. (He was a Samaritan.)

24. “When the Son of Man comes again, you will know it. On that day he will shine like lightning flashes across the sky.
