Description of Illustration: watercolor by James Tissot, restored by Kathy Grimm, Tissot named his paintings and this one is called "Healing of The Lepers at Capernaum" the scripture referenced by this work is Luke 17:11-19, Ten lepers are healed by Jesus, only one of the ten thanks him.
"As Jesus continued on toward Jerusalem, he reached the border between Galilee and Samaria. As he entered a village there, ten lepers stood at a distance, crying out, "Jesus, Master, have mercy on us!" He looked at them and said, "Go show yourselves to the priests." And as they went, they were cleansed of their leprosy. One of them, when he saw that he was healed, came back to Jesus, shouting, "Praise God!" He fell to the ground at Jesus' feet, thanking him for what he had done. This man was a Samaritan. Jesus asked, "Didn't I heal ten men? Where are the other nine? Has no one returned to give glory to God except this foreigner?" And Jesus said to the man, "Stand up and go. Your faith has healed you." Luke 17: 11-19 (NLT)
