The story of Jesus healing a man with leprosy is told in Matthew 8:1-4, Mark 1:40-45, and Luke 5:12-16. In this story, a man with leprosy approaches Jesus and kneels before him, saying "Lord, if you are willing, you can make me clean." Jesus responds by touching the man and saying "I am willing. Be clean!"
The man is immediately healed of his leprosy. Jesus tells the man not to tell anyone about the healing, but the man disobeys and spreads the news. This story highlights Jesus' power to heal even the most serious illnesses, and his compassion for those who are suffering.
