7.3 Misit ad eum seniores, etc. Divina providentia seniores Judæorum mittuntur, et eis præsentibus languidus sanatur, ut inexcusabiles sint si credere noluerint. Centurio amicos mittit, ne præsentia sua verecundiam Domini gravare videretur, et officium officio provocasse. Significat autem, quia nos qui de gentibus credimus ad Dominum, non ipsi venire possumus quem in carne videre non possumus, sed ad residentem in dextera Patris. Gentilis populus quasi centurio stipatur milite virtutum et spiritualium perfectione, quæ in centum significatur. Sublimis, nihil terrenum a Domino sibi suisque requirens, sed sola æternæ salutis gaudia: et hi pro servis, id est, pro his qui adhuc spiritu servitutis in timore premuntur, Domino supplicant, ut eis paulatim ad superiora provectis, perfecta dilectio foras mittat timorem I Joan. 4.. Matthæus dicit centurionem accessisse, quod per fidem intelligendum est. Per fidem enim vere ad Deum acceditur, quæ in centurione a Domino commendatur: Non inveni tantam fidem in Isræl. Porro Lucas ordine quo gestum est exsequitur, ut intelligere cogeremur, quomodo eum accessisse dicit Matthæus.
7.3 Misit to him seniores, etc. Divina providentia seniores Yudæorum mittuntur, and to_them præsentibus languidus sanatur, as inexcusabiles sint when/but_if credere noluerint. Centurio amicos mittit, not præsentia his_own verecundiam Master gravare videretur, and officium officio provocasse. Significat however, because we who about nations credimus to Dominum, not/no ipsi venire possumus which in carne videre not/no possumus, but to residentem in dextera Patris. Gentilis populus as_if centurio stipatur milite virtutum and spiritualium perfectione, which in hundred significatur. Sublimis, nihil terrenum from Master sibi to_his_ownque requirens, but sola æternæ salutis gaudia: and hi for servis, id it_is, for his who adhuc spiritu servitutis in timore premuntur, Master supplicant, as to_them paulatim to superiora provectis, perfecta dilectio foras mittat timorem I Yoan. 4.. Matthæus dicit centurionem accessisse, that through faith intelligendum it_is. Per faith because vere to God acceditur, which in centurione from Master commendatur: Non inveni tantam faith in Isræl. Further Lucas ordine quo gestum it_is exsequitur, as intelligere cogeremur, how him accessisse dicit Matthæus.

7:3 Jewish elders were leaders in the Jewish community. With his tendency to abbreviate accounts, Matthew has the centurion approaching Jesus (Matt 8:5-13). Luke tells the full story in which Jewish elders, and later the centurion’s friends, act as intermediaries.
ἐρωτῶν αὐτὸν ὅπως ἐλθὼν διασώσῃ
asking him so_that /having/_come ˱he˲_/may/_cure
In this context, the word save has a specific meaning. Alternate translation: [asking him to come and heal]
