Jesus heals Simon’s mother-in-law
4:38-39 – When Jesus got up and left the synagogue he went into Simon’s house. Simon’s mother-in-law was suffering from a high fever, and they asked Jesus about her.

4:40-41 Then, as the sun was setting, all those who had friends suffering from every kind of disease brought them to Jesus and he laid his hands on each one of them separately and healed them.

4:44 – And he continued proclaiming his message in the synagogues of Judea.
