Commandments

A man with leprosy (adolescent) presents himself to Jesus. He has committed adultery with a beautiful woman. The leprosy has just appeared and he is about to be condemned. He begs for God's mercy, but is not truly repentant. Jesus achieves physical healing, not because of the young man, but because of his mother. Then he makes a speech about not coveting another's wife.

Jesus teaches us not to steal and not to envy others. In particular, he looks back at the origins of envy, with Lucifer, Adam and Eve, Cain and Abel. The Lord also enjoins us to be as simple as birds, to trust in God and His Providence. At the request of others, he speaks of Herod's sin and prostitution. Then he heals an almost-blind man.
