The news [of what Jesus was doing] spread all over [the country of] Syria and they brought to Him all those who were sick, stricken with various diseases and pains, dominated by evil spirits, and afflicted with seizures and paralysis, and He healed them [all].
And wherever He entered towns, cities or the countryside, they placed sick people at the open shopping markets and begged Him to allow them to touch even the edge of His robe. And all those who touched Him were made well.
[One of the miracles performed was that] sick people were even carried into the streets on beds and couches so that, as he passed them, Peter’s shadow would fall on someone [in hope of it producing a miraculous healing].
