# He instructed him to tell no one but told him, "Go on your way
Jesus' instruction can be stated as a direct quote. Alternate translation: "He said, 'Do not tell anyone, but go on your way" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-quotations]])
The understood information can be stated clearly. Alternate translation: "to not tell anyone that he had been healed" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-ellipsis]])
The law required a person to make a specific sacrifice after they were healed. This allowed the person to be ceremonially clean, and able to again participate in religious rituals.
