Peter's mother-in-law healed
See them side by side
Matthew 8:14-15
14And coming into Peter’s house, Jesus saw his mother-in-law lying in bed and sick with a fever. 15And he touched her hand, and the fever left her; and she got up and began to serve him.
29And at once, having gone out of the synagogue, they went into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John. 30Now Simon’s mother-in-law was lying sick with a fever, and at once they tell him about her. 31And he came and raised her up, taking her by the hand; and the fever left her, and she began serving them.
38And rising to go from the synagogue, he went into Simon’s house. Now Simon’s mother-in-law was gripped by a high fever, and they asked him about her. 39And standing over her, he rebuked the fever, and it left her; and immediately she got up and began serving them.

To study Matthew 8 in a group
1. What it says
What did the centurion say to Jesus about his servant, and how did Jesus respond (vv. 8–10)?
2. What it means
What do these healings and the calming of the sea show about who Jesus is (v. 27)?
3. How I live it
The centurion asked for help for his servant (vv. 5–6). Whom could you stand with today in a need that isn't yours?
