Context of Luke 17:13
11Jesus traveled along the border between Samaria and Galilee on his way to Jerusalem. 12As he went into a village, ten men with a skin disease met him. They stood at a distance and shouted, “Jesus, Teacher, have mercy on us!” 14When he saw them, he told them, “Show yourselves to the priests.” As they went, they were made clean. 15When one of them saw that he was healed, he turned back and praised God in a loud voice.
