Sabbath evening cures (Matthew 8:16-17; Mark 1:32-34). δύνοντος τ. ἡ.: Lk. selects the more important part of Mk.'s dual definition of time. With sunset the Sabbath closed. δύνοντος is present participle of the late form δύνω = δύω. ἑνὶ ἑκάστῳ : laying His hands on each one, a touch peculiar to Lk., pointing, Godet thinks, to a separate source at Lk.'s command; much more certainly to Lk.'s desire to make prominent the benevolent sympathy of Jesus. Jesus did not heal en masse, but one by one, tender sympathy going out from Him in each case. Intrinsically probable, and worth noting. This trait in Lk. is in its own way as valuable as Mt.'s citation from Isaiah (Luke 8:17), and serves the same purpose.
