In a transitional passage often lumped with what follows or precedes, Matthew reminds us of precious truths at the core of Christ’s public ministry. As he arrives on the shore we immediately see how word of mouth spreads the news. We then see that even a mere touching of Jesus’ garment brings healing—because Jesus takes hold of those he saves. We further see that Jesus saves to the uttermost, reflecting on the language Matthew uses to describe the healings. As we turn to reflect on ourselves, let us consider how Jesus saves us to the uttermost; how, though our faith be weak, we are saved by his firm and unconquerable hold on us; and let us ask the Lord to open our mouths to spread abroad the news of what he has done for us, that others may be drawn to him.
