Description:Excerpt from The Centurion The character of this man is testified to of Christ as very remarkable. He was a Gentile, a Roman officer, who had command over the tr00ps stationed at Capernaum, as a garrison for that subj ugated Jewish town. Though a soldier, he was an eminently godly man though not a follower of Christ, as he knew nothing of christianity. As a heathen and a Roman soldier, we might expect that his prejudices were great both against the religion of the Jews and the people over whom he ruled, But we find that the Elders of the Jews reported him as worthy of a visit from Christ, inasmuch as he had expressed great regard for the people with whom, in the providence of God, his lot was cast and had actually, out of his own private funds, built them a Synagogue. This is all that is related of him up to the time of his interview with Christ. A servant to whom he had great attachment was sick of the palsy, in behalf of whom he went to Christ and asked him to heal him. Beseeching him, he said, Lord my servant lieth at home sick of the palsy, grievously tormented. The good master struck with the humble posture of this, a Gentile soldier of rank, returned his grace with unexpected favor. The promise is ask and ye shall receive. But before he could ask the favor, Jesus saith unto him, I will come and heal him. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
