When he had entered Capernaum, a centurion came forward to him, appealing to him, “Lord, my servant is lying paralyzed at home, suffering terribly.”
Matthew 8:5-6
The centurion in Matthew 8 had power and wealth, but he humbled himself to approach an itinerant preacher on behalf of a slave. He commanded Roman soldiers, but he recognized Yeshua as his superior. The centurion both served and commanded those under his authority without contradiction or confusion.
