They came to
Jesus and found the man out of whom the devils departed. He was
sitting at the feet of Jesus, clothed, and in his right mind. The
people were afraid. Those who saw it explained how the man possessed
with the devils was healed. Then the whole multitude of the country
around the Gadarenes besought Jesus to leave.
Jesus went back to the boat. The man who had been possessed by the
devils asked to go with Him. But Jesus sent him away. He said, Return
to thine own house and show the great things God has done for thee.
The man went his way and told the whole city the great things Jesus
had done.
It came to pass that Jesus returned and the people gladly received
Him. They were all waiting for Him. There came a man named Jairus. He
was a ruler of the synagogue. He fell down at Jesus' feet and besought
Him to come to his house. His only daughter, about twelve years of
age, lay dying. As Jesus started out, the people thronged Him.
A woman who had an issue of blood for twelve years and who had spent
all her living on physicians who were unable to heal her, came up
behind Him, and touched the border of His garment. Immediately her
issue of blood ceased. Jesus said, Who touched me? When all denied,
Peter and those with him said, Master, the multitude throng thee and
press thee, and you ask, Who touched me? Jesus said, Somebody has
touched me for I perceive that virtue is gone out of me.
