Then Jesus said to the centurion
This phrase introduces the direct interaction between Jesus and the centurion, a Roman officer commanding a hundred soldiers. The centurion's presence is significant, as it highlights the inclusivity of Jesus' ministry, reaching beyond the Jewish community to a Gentile. The Greek word for centurion, "ἑκατόνταρχος" (hekatontarchos), underscores the authority and respect this man held, yet he approaches Jesus with humility, recognizing a higher authority in Christ.

Go!
The command "Go!" is a simple yet powerful directive from Jesus. In Greek, "Ὕπαγε" (Hypage) conveys a sense of immediacy and assurance. It reflects Jesus' authority over distance and circumstance, emphasizing that His word alone is sufficient to enact change. This command also signifies the beginning of the fulfillment of the centurion's faith.

As you have believed
This phrase is pivotal, as it connects the centurion's faith directly to the outcome. The Greek word "πιστεύω" (pisteuō) for "believed" indicates a deep trust and confidence in Jesus' power and authority. The centurion's belief is not just intellectual assent but a profound trust that Jesus can heal his servant without physical presence. This highlights the biblical principle that faith is the conduit through which divine power flows.

so will it be done for you
Here, Jesus affirms the principle of faith resulting in action. The Greek phrase "γενηθήτω σοι" (genēthētō soi) translates to "let it be done for you," echoing the creative power of God's word seen in Genesis. This statement underscores the idea that faith aligns with God's will, and when it does, miraculous outcomes follow. It also reflects the personal nature of Jesus' miracles, tailored to the individual's faith and situation.

And his servant was healed
The healing of the servant is the tangible result of the centurion's faith and Jesus' authoritative word. The Greek word "ἰάομαι" (iaomai) for "healed" implies a complete and immediate restoration to health. This miraculous healing serves as a testament to Jesus' divine power and compassion, reinforcing His identity as the Messiah who brings physical and spiritual restoration.

at that very hour
The immediacy of the healing, "ἐν τῇ ὥρᾳ ἐκείνῃ" (en tē hōra ekeinē), emphasizes the authority of Jesus' word. It demonstrates that Jesus' power transcends time and space, providing instant results. This phrase also serves to validate the centurion's faith and the truth of Jesus' promise, offering assurance to believers that God's timing is perfect and His promises are sure.

(13) As thou hast believed.--The words were, of course, sent as a message. Better, As thou didst believe--referring to his one great act of faith.

Verse 13. - Matthew only. The parallel passage, Luke 7:10, gives the result found by the messengers on their return. And Jesus said unto the centurion, Go thy way; and (omitted by the Revised Version) as thou hast believed, so be it done unto thee. As. Not strictly proportionate, but in the same way as (Matthew 6:12; Matthew 18:33) thou hast now believed, be it done unto thee. And his servant was healed in the selfsame (Revised Version, in that) hour.
