Quick answer
Jesus tells the grateful Samaritan that his faith has saved him. The man receives more than physical healing.
Overview
All ten were cleansed, but Jesus singles out this one as one whose faith has "made him well" or saved him, language that points beyond the body to wholeness before God. Faith that recognizes and returns to Christ receives salvation, not merely a benefit. The episode illustrates that saving faith expresses itself in worship and thanksgiving.
