[Song] “Sing them over again to me, wonderful words of life. Let me more of their beauty see, wonderful words of life.”
Hello, my name is Miss Barb! Welcome to Lifeline English, the podcast that helps you know God and know English.
You can read the written script for today’s lesson online at lifelineenglish.com.
Today I have three new words for you. Ready?
The first word is leprosy. Can you say it? Lep-ro-sy. Good job! Leprosy is a very bad disease. It is also called Hansen’s disease. People who have leprosy are called “lepers”. Leprosy deadens nerves so that the lepers can no longer feel pain. Lepers sometimes lose their fingers, toes, or even hands, feet and noses, because they cannot feel pain.
The next word is priest. A priest is a person who helps other people know and worship God. Before Jesus came, God used priests to help His people. The priests helped the people to be forgiven by God, to worship God, and to obey God. They also examined people who had diseases, to stop their diseases from spreading to other people.
The last word today is foreigner. Repeat after me. For-eign-er. Good! A foreigner is a person from a different country. Many foreigners come to the United States to find work. But some foreigners come to cause problems. Some people are afraid of foreigners.
Okay, ready for the story? It’s called, “The Thankful Leper”.
When I ask a question, I will leave a space. You can answer my question. Then I will say the answer. You can compare your answer with my answer.

This story is in the third person, past tense. I will tell it to you again. This time, it will be in the present tense, first person. It will be as if the foreigner is telling the story.
Ten of us with leprosy meet Jesus. We yell from a distance, “Jesus, Master, have mercy on us!”
Jesus sees us. He says, “Go and show yourselves to the priests.”
While the ten of us are going, we are healed.
I go back to Jesus. I praise God loudly. I fall down in front of Jesus to thank Him. I am a foreigner.
Jesus says, “Weren’t all ten healed? Where are the other nine? Only a foreigner came back to praise God?”
Then Jesus says to me, “Get up and go. Your faith has healed you.”
The nine men obeyed Jesus to get healed. They loved being healed more than they loved Jesus. The foreign man loved Jesus more than he loved being healed. He came back to thank Jesus.
