Physical disease, however malignant and deep-seated, was healed by the power of Christ; but the disease of the soul took a firmer hold upon those who closed their eyes against the light. Leprosy and palsy were not so terrible as bigotry and unbelief.

Hvor ondartet legemlig sygdom end kunne være, og hvor dybe rødder den end havde, så blev den helbredt ved Kristi kraft; men sjælens sygdom havde et fastere greb om dem, der lukkede øjnene i for lyset. Spedalskhed og lammelse var ikke så forfærdelige som hykleri og vantro.
