During Jesus' third preaching tour in Galilee, people in one area after another flocked to him, listening and being cured of their infirmities. Jesus noted that "they were skinned down and thrown about like sheep without a shepherd." ( Matthew 9:36; see study notes.) Their religious leaders had considered them as too ignorant to matter, even calling them "accursed people." (John 7:47-49; study notes.) But Jesus dignified them by taking the time to teach them and to cure them of their diseases. (Matthew 9:35) Furthermore, in order to help more individuals, he trained his apostles to share in the preaching work and gave them the authority to cure diseases and infirmities. - MATTHEW 10:5-8.
