Peter's Mother-in-Law was one of the Miracles of Jesus, according to the Gospels of Mark (1:29-34), Matthew (8:14-17), and Luke (4:38-41).
Overview
According to the Synoptic Gospels, the healing of Peter's Mother-in-Law occurred at Capernaum.
In Mark and Luke, the healing occurred on Sabbath, after Jesus preached in the synagogue at Capernaum, where he healed a Man with an Unclean Spirit. In Mark, however, the episode happened after the Call of the First Disciples, while in Luke it was before Peter and his brother were called.
Matthew located the episode much later in the Ministry of Jesus, omitting any references to the Sabbath setting
All three Gospels refer that at the sunset of that day, many sick people came to Jesus to be healed. The detail confirms that the original timing of the episode was on Sabbath, as only at sunset the sick could be carried by their friends and relatives to Jesus.
