After Jesus and His inner circle left the synagogue in Capernaum they went in to the home of Simon Peter’s mother-in-law. This house became a sort of headquarters while He was in Capernaum (Mark 2:1; 3:20; 9:33; 10:10). He had just finished His dealings with the demons and now He was faced with the fever of Peter’s mother-in-law. While Matthew also tells us that Peter’s wife’s mother was “laid up with fever” or “lying sick with fever,” Luke, a physician (Colossians 4:14), tells us that she was “in the grip of a high fever,” or “was suffering from a severe attack of fever ” (Luke 4:38). So coupling the other accounts together with Mark’s rapid outline style of writing it is apparent that this woman was real sick. As Jesus was told of her situation He immediately had compassion on her and took her by the hand, and lifted her up; which was all it took for the Savior of the world to administer a miracle healing. The fever left her as soon as Jesus took her hand and had her stand up. She was immediately fully healed because she was able to resume her hospitality responsibilities by serving the guests of Jesus, James and John along with Simon Peter and his wife.
