The point of this Gospel is the faith of the centurion. This one, in inviting Jesus to speak a word of healing, presents himself as unworthy and believes that the word of Jesus can surely heal, even from a distance. Those who must have this faith are the Jews; for they are the heirs of the Kingdom, as a people who possess the promise.
