Luke 9
One thing that really set Jesus apart was that He not only healed people but He gave power to others to do the same. As far as I am aware, no other person has ever done so except they have done so by virtue of His priesthood. Only Christ ever gave the power to heal to another person on His own authority. Others may have had the gift of healing and may have been hailed as prophets but none bestowed the gift of healing on others unless they did so in His name.
When Christ spoke of being delivered into the hands of men His disciples didn’t understand Him, but unlike many other subjects they didn’t dare ask Him for clarification.
