MAT 8:15 Parallel Verse View

Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not natural language units and hence sometimes only part of a sentence will be visible—click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed as a tool for doing comparisons of different translations—the older translations are further down the page (so you can read up from the bottom to trace the English translation history). The OET segments on this page are still very early looks into the unfinished texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible—please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

SOTN SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 8:14–17: Jesus healed many people

In this section Jesus healed people and forced demons to leave people. These miracles showed Jesus’ power. They also fulfilled a prophecy of Isaiah about the Christ.

Here are some other possible headings for this section:

Jesus healed Peter’s mother-in-law and many others

Jesus Heals Many at Peter’s House (NRSV)

Jesus fulfilled prophecy by healing many people

There are parallel passages for this section in Mark 1:29–31 and Luke 4:38–39.

8:15a

So He touched her hand, and the fever left her,

He touched her hand, and the fever ended.
Jesus touched/took her hand, and she became well.

So He touched her hand, and the fever left her: This sentence indicates that when Jesus touched the hand of Peter’s mother-in-law, she was miraculously healed. The clause the fever left her means that the sickness was gone and the woman’s body cooled and became normal again.

Here are some other ways to translate this sentence:

Jesus touched her hand, and the fever went away (GW)

He touched her hand, and the fever ended/finished.

He touched her hand and immediately she became well.

8:15b

and she got up and began to serve them.

Then she got up and took care of them.
Then she got up and gave them something to eat.

she got up and began to serve them: The phrase began to serve them means that the woman started to take care of Jesus’ and the others’ needs. This probably means that she began to serve food.

However, you should not say that she cooked a meal for Jesus. According to the parallel passages in Mark and Luke, Jesus healed this woman on the Sabbath. On that day, it was forbidden for women to cook. She gave him food that had already been prepared.

Here are some other ways to translate this sentence:

Then she got up and began to take care of Jesus.

Then she got up and served Jesus a meal. (CEV)
