CommentBedePublic domainMark 1:29–31

The health which is conferred at the command of the Lord, returns at once entire, accompanied with such strength that she is able to minister to those of whose help she had before stood in need.

Again, if we suppose that the man delivered from the devil means, in the moral way of interpretation, the soul purged from unclean thoughts, fitly does the woman cured of a fever by the command of God mean the flesh, restrained from the heat of it concupiscence by the precepts of continence.

Reproduced in full. Translation: Oxford 1841 (Newman), public domain (Public domain).

Also cites: in Marc., 1, 8
