A. He did not want confrontation from the pharisees B. There was need to show appreciation C. Such offerings serve as a proof to the people D. Without such offerings, the leprosy might come back
Correct Answer: A
Explanation
And Jesus said to him, See you tell no man; but go your way, show yourself to the priest, and offer the gift that Moses commanded, for a testimony to them. Matthew 8:4 In sending the lepers to the priests Jesus is giving them their opportunity to reconnect with loved ones, re-establish careers and resume normal worship and avoid confrontation. It has to do with reintegrating them into society. Priests were able to verify that someone was healthy and had been cured
