Luke 8:46-50 ESV

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Luke 8:40-56

Christ was driven away by the Gadarenes; they were weary of him, and willing to be rid of him. But when he had crossed the water, and returned to the Galileans, they gladly received him, wished and waited for his return, and welcomed him with all their hearts when he did return, Luke 8:40. If some will not accept the favours Christ offers them, others will. If the Gadarenes be not gathered, yet there are many among whom Christ shall be glorious. When Christ had done his work on the other side... read more

William Barclay's Daily Study Bible - Luke 8:43-48

8:43-48 There was a woman who had had a flow of blood for twelve years. She had spent all her living on doctors and she could not be cured by any of them. She came up behind Jesus and she touched the tassel of his robe; and immediately her flow of blood was stayed. Jesus said, "Who touched me?" When they were all denying that they had done so, Peter and his companions said, "Master, the crowds are all round you and press in upon you." Jesus said, "Someone has touched me, for I know that power... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Luke 8:46

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; See Gill on Luke 6:19 . read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Luke 8:47

And when the woman saw that she was not hid ,.... From Christ, among the crowd, nor the thing that she had done. The Syriac and Arabic versions render it, "that he had not forgot her"; she hoping he would be diverted from taking any notice of her and her action, through the crowd of people about him; she came trembling ; for fear of the anger and resentment of Christ, and lest the favour would be revoked, and the penalty of the law inflicted; See Gill on Mark 5:33 . And falling down... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Luke 8:48

And he said unto her, daughter ,.... Instead of frowning upon her, and chiding her for what she had done, he addressed her in a very affable and affectionate manner; bidding her be of good comfort ; and not be afraid; this clause is left out in the Vulgate Latin version, as in Mark 5:34 but is in the copies, and other versions: thy faith hath made thee whole, go peace ; See Gill on Matthew 8:2 . See Gill on Mark 5:34 . See Gill on Luke 7:50 . read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Luke 8:49

While he yet spake ,.... The above words to the woman; there cometh one : Mark suggests there were more than one, Mark 5:35 ; see Gill on Mark 5:35 and the Persic version here reads, "some of the ruler's family came"; that is, to him, who was now with Jesus: from the ruler of the synagogue's house; so the word "house" is supplied by the Syriac and Ethiopic versions; otherwise the words would be, from the ruler of the synagogue ; which could not be, since he was still with Christ:... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Luke 8:50

But when Jesus heard it ,.... The message that was brought to the ruler, and the hint that was given, that it was needless to give him any further trouble: he answered him ; not the messenger, but the father of the child, as the Vulgate Latin, Syriac, Persic, and Ethiopic versions read: saying, fear not : do not be dismayed at this message, nor despair of help, notwithstanding such is the case: believe only, and she shall be made whole ; exercise faith in me, that I am able to... read more

Adam Clarke

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 8:46

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,... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Luke 8:22-56

A group of miracles. The mother and brethren of Jesus had tried in vain to interfere with the important work in which he was engaged; he clung to his disciples as the real members of his Father's family. And so we find his career as a merciful Miracle-worker continuing. We have here a group of notable miracles; it was, as Godet suggests, the culmination of his miraculous work. Nature, human nature, and death yield to his authority in their order. I. SAFETY IN THE SOCIETY OF ... read more
