General Information:

These events occur at the house of Matthew the tax collector.

When Jesus heard this

Here "this" refers to the question the Pharisees asked about Jesus eating with tax collectors and sinners.

People who are strong in body do not need a physician, only those who are sick

Jesus answers with a proverb. He means that he eats with these kinds of people because he has come to help sinners. (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/writing-proverbs)

physician

doctor

those who are sick

The phrase "need a physician" is understood. Alternate translation: "people who are sick need a physician" (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-ellipsis)
