Christ Sees the Beginning and the Ending of the Patient's
Matthew 9:1-8
And he entered into a ship, and passed over, and came into his own city.…


ailment: — Sin is the well in which it springs, and perdition the sea to which it is flowing. When he looked on disease, he sees its beginning and its ending: his work is to cut short its course, ere it issue in the second death. He looks upward and downward: he will not confine his view to these symptoms which appear in the body, and pertain to time.

(W. Arnot.)
