Contextual Overview

⁴⁰When Jesus returned, a big crowd was waiting on him. ⁴¹A local church leader named Jairus came up and bowed down in front of Jesus. He begged Jesus to come to his home. ⁴²His twelve-year-old daughter was dying. Jesus left with him at once and was followed by a lot of folks. ⁴³In the crowd following Jesus was a woman who'd been bleeding for nearly twelve years and no one had been able to help her. ⁴⁴She came up behind Jesus and touched his vest. Immediately her bleeding stopped. ⁴⁵Jesus turned and asked, "Who touched me?"Everyone turned around all innocent like and then Pete said, "Boss, there's a bunch of people. Maybe someone accidentally bumped ya." ⁴⁶But Jesus replied, "I felt the healing power leave me. Someone touched me on purpose." ⁴⁷The woman was real scared now and she trembled as she took a knee before Jesus. She then explained why she had touched his vest and how she had immediately been cured. ⁴⁸Jesus smiled kindly at her and said, "Daughter, your faith in me has healed you. Go in peace!" ⁴⁹While Jesus was still talking to her, someone came running up from the church leader's home and told Jairus, "Your daughter is dead. No need to bring Jesus anymore."

Bible Verse Review
  from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge

for: Luke 6:19, 1 Peter 2:9, *marg.

Reciprocal: Mark 5:30 - virtue Luke 5:17 - power

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And Jesus said, somebody hath touched me,.... Not in a common and accidental way, but with design, and in the strength of faith:

for I perceive that virtue is gone out of me: for the cure of the person that had touched him, and that not without his knowledge and will; :-.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

See this passage explained in the notes at Matthew 9:18-26, and Mark 5:21-43.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 46. I perceive that virtue — δυναμιν, Divine or miraculous power. This Divine emanation did not proceed always from Christ, as necessarily as odours do from plants, for then all who touched him must have been equally partakers of it. Of the many that touched him, this woman and none else received this Divine virtue; and why? Because she came in faith. Faith alone attracts and receives the energetic influence of God at all times. There would be more miracles, at least of spiritual healing, were there more faith among those who are called believers.
