Greek Commentary for Matthew 8:16
Genitive absolute. A beautiful sunset scene at the close of the Sabbath day (Mark 1:21). Then the crowds came as Jesus stood in the door of Peter‘s house (Mark 1:33; Matthew 8:14) as all the city gathered there with the sick, “all those who had it bad” (see note on Matthew 4:24) and he healed them “with a word” It was a never to be forgotten memory for those who saw it.

Genitive absolute. Not sunset about 6 p.m. as in Matthew 8:16 and as in Matthew 14:23, but the first of the two “evenings” beginning at 3 p.m. [source]
Imperfect tense including all the chronic cases.With divers diseases (νοσοις ποικιλαις nosois poikilais). Instrumental case. For “divers” say “many coloured” or “variegated.” See note on Matthew 4:24 and note on Mark 1:33. Brought (ēgagon). Constative summary second aorist active indicative like Matthew 8:16, prosenegkan where Mark 1:32 has the imperfect ηγαγον epheron brought one after another.He laid his hands on every ozne of them and healed them Note the present active participle επερον epititheis and the imperfect active ο δε ενι εκαστωι αυτων τας χειρας επιτιτεις ετεραπευεν αυτους etherapeuen picturing the healing one by one with the tender touch upon each one. Luke alone gives this graphic detail which was more than a mere ceremonial laying on of hands. Clearly the cures of Jesus reached the physical, mental, and spiritual planes of human nature. He is Lord of life and acted here as Master of each case as it came. [source]
