25 Or “roof; therefore.”
26 Grk “I did not consider myself worthy to come to you.” See ἀξιόω 1. “Presume” assumes this and expresses the idea in terms of offense.
27 The aorist imperative ἰαθήτω (iathētō, “must be healed”) is found in 𝔓75vid B L 1241 sa. Most (א A C D W Θ Ψ f1, 13 33 𝔐 latt bo) have instead a future indicative, ἰαθήσεται (iathēsetai, “will be healed”). This is most likely an assimilation to Matt 8:8, and thus, as a motivated reading, should be considered secondary. The meaning either way is essentially the same. The aorist imperative may be translated as an imperative of command (“must be healed” or, more periphrastically, “command [my servant] to be healed”) or as a permissive imperative (“let my servant be healed”), which lessens the force of the imperative somewhat in English.
