How do lepers relate to their former and future communities? Leviticus 14 makes ample provision for declaring a leper clean, giving them a way to rejoin the people. 2 Kings 7 shows us the remarkable role that 4 lepers of Samaria played in saving the city. In a moment of conviction and charity, they chose to share good news of the LORD's miraculous salvation to a community that they themselves could not (yet) rejoin. Perhaps with this in mind, Luke 17 notices a key detail about the one grateful leper who came back praising God for his healing–he too was a leper of Samaria.
