WE ARE somehow reminded of this kind of behavior in that gospel episode where Christ told the leper whom he just cured to “tell no one anything,” but to rather show himself to the priest and to offer what Moses prescribed for his cleansing. (cfr. Mk 1,40-45) We know how that episode ended. The cleansed leper could not help but publicize what happened to him such that Christ could not anymore enter a town openly.
