Jesus heilt einen Aussätzigen

Jesus stands in a rocky wilderness setting, reaching out with compassion to touch a man portrayed as a leper. The man, clothed in a simple red robe and holding a walking staff, looks back at Him with relieved joy as Christ breaks the social boundary of uncleanness with a personal act of mercy. The desert cliffs and sparse ground echo the isolation often experienced by those afflicted with leprosy in the biblical world.

The scene reflects the Gospel accounts in which a leper comes to Jesus seeking cleansing, and Jesus answers not with distance but with touch: He is willing, and the man is made clean. The moment emphasizes Christ’s authority over disease, His tenderness toward the outcast, and the restoration of a person not only to health but also to worship and community. This artwork serves well for teaching on healing, compassion, faith, mercy, and the cleansing power of Christ.
