When one of them
This phrase highlights the individuality and personal response of one leper among the ten who were healed. In the Greek, "one" (εἷς, heis) emphasizes the singularity of this man's action, setting him apart from the others. This reflects the biblical theme of the remnant, where a small, faithful group or individual stands out in faithfulness to God. Historically, this underscores the rarity of true gratitude and recognition of divine intervention in one's life.

saw that he was healed
The Greek word for "saw" (ἰδών, idōn) implies more than just physical sight; it suggests perception and understanding. This man not only noticed his physical healing but comprehended its significance. The term "healed" (ἰάθη, iathē) is used to describe a complete restoration, indicating that his leprosy was entirely cured. This moment of realization is pivotal, as it marks the transition from physical healing to spiritual awakening.

he came back
The act of returning (ὑπέστρεψεν, hypestrepsen) signifies repentance and a change of direction, both physically and spiritually. In the biblical context, returning to God is a recurring theme, symbolizing a turning away from sin and towards divine grace. This man's return is a powerful testament to the importance of acknowledging God's work in our lives and responding with gratitude.

praising God
"Praising" (δοξάζων, doxazōn) involves glorifying and honoring God, recognizing His power and mercy. This act of worship is central to the Christian faith, as it acknowledges God's sovereignty and goodness. The historical context of Jewish worship practices, which included public declarations of God's deeds, enriches our understanding of this man's response as both culturally significant and deeply personal.

in a loud voice
The phrase "loud voice" (μεγάλῃ φωνῇ, megalē phōnē) indicates the intensity and sincerity of the man's praise. This public and vocal expression of gratitude contrasts with the silence of the other nine lepers. In the scriptural context, a loud voice is often associated with moments of divine revelation or significant spiritual events, underscoring the importance of this man's testimony. His loud praise serves as a witness to others of God's miraculous power and mercy.

(15) Turned back, and with a loud voice.--The words imply that the work of healing was not accomplished till the company of lepers were at least out of sight.
