Jesus heals the leper by Alexandre Bida. There is some speculation as to whether the illness now called Hansen's disease is the same described in Biblical times as leprosy.

Cleansing of the ten lepers (c. 1035-1040) According to Berard Marthaler and Herbert Lockyer, this miracle emphasizes the importance of faith, for Jesus did not say: "My power has saved you" but attributed the healing to the faith of the beneficiaries.

The Bible's description of leprosy is congruous (if lacking detail) with the symptoms of modern leprosy, but the relationship between this disease, tzaraath , and Hansen's disease has ...
In most cases, Christian authors associate each miracle with specific teachings that reflect the message of Jesus. [10]In The Miracles of Jesus, H. Van der Loos describes two main categories of miracles attributed to Jesus: those that affected people (such as Jesus healing the blind man of Bethsaida), or "healings", and those that "controlled nature" (such as Jesus walking on water).
