It is all about souls.The blind souls are those who do not try see divine light and God inside body.Lame are those souls who have become so weak under the burden of worldly pressure and mind affect on them so they never try to walk toward spiritual success.The sins,bad deed,bad thoughts,ego,lust for sex etc.make the souls equal to lepers.Deaf are those souls who never try to listen the divine melody or sound inside the body.Dead is called to those souls who have no inclination toward God.Poor souls are those who have lost their original wealth,the living with God in heaven.These souls will achieve strength of seeing God,lame will get power for movement toward spiritual success,the lepers soul will become holy soul,deaf souls will become listening soul for current sound,dead souls will wake toward their destination and poor soul will get company of God with having gospels of christ followers as their life gems.
