Context of Luke 5:14
12And it came to pass as he was in one of the cities, that behold, there was a man full of leprosy, and seeing Jesus, falling upon his face, he besought him saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou art able to cleanse me. 13And stretching forth his hand he touched him, saying, I will; be thou cleansed: and immediately the leprosy departed from him. And he enjoined him to tell no one; but go, shew thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing as Moses ordained, for a testimony to them. 15But the report concerning him was spread abroad still more, and great crowds came together to hear, and to be healed from their infirmities. 16And he withdrew himself, and was about in the desert [places] and praying.
