What is the significance of the fact that the leper had to be healed before he was cleansed from the defilement of his leprosy?
The significance was that the leper now possessed a new life. The sick, old, decaying, disease, SIN laden body has been cleansed, put to death and a new healthy life been given.
"Jesus answered him, 'Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God.'" (John 3:3)
"For neither circumcision counts for anything, nor uncircumcision, but a new creation."
(Gal. 6:15)
