Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Luke 8:40-56
Luke 8:40-56. When Jesus returned, the people gladly received him At landing, he met with a better reception than among the Gadarenes, for the multitude gathered round him to hear him preach, many having waited there in expectation of his return. To these, therefore, he preached the doctrines of salvation, for Mark represents him as tarrying with the people some time before he went into Capernaum. Behold there came a man named Jairus, &c.

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Luke 8:40-56
59. Jairus’ daughter and a woman healed (Matthew 9:18-26; Mark 5:21-43; Luke 8:40-56)Back in the Jewish regions, a synagogue elder named Jairus asked Jesus to come and heal his seriously ill daughter. Seeing that the man had faith, Jesus set off for his house (Mark 5:21-24). On the way they were interrupted by a sick woman who believed that if she could only touch Jesus’ clothing she would be healed (Mark 5:25-29).

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Luke 8:51
And when he came to the house, he suffered not any man to enter in with him, save Peter, and John, and James and the father of the maiden and her mother. And all were weeping and bewailing her: and he said, Weep not; for she is not dead, but sleepeth.Not dead, but sleepeth ... Thus Jesus provided his enemies with a crutch to sustain their wicked unbelief; and which, if he had not granted it, would probably have resulted in their killing him then and there. It is also evident that the crutch was... read more

These public mourners were customary figures in all Jewish homes, even in the poorest where a death had occurred. They are still usual throughout the Levant. The expression, "laughed him to scorn," is found in Shakespeare— "Our castle's strength Will laugh a siege to scorn." ('Macbeth,' act... read more
