Luke 13:12

12 And when Jesus saw her, he said to her, Woman, you are made free from your disease.

Luke 13:12 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 13:12

And when Jesus saw her
In the synagogue among the people, either whilst, or after he had done teaching:

he called her to him,
to come nearer him, and said unto her; of his own accord, without being asked by the woman, or any other for her, out of great compassion to her, seeing her in this miserable condition, and knowing full well the nature, cause, and long continuance of her disorder:

woman, thou art loosed from thine infirmity;
which had not only bowed her, but it had bound her, as if she had been bound with cords; but Christ by saying these words, with his hands laid upon her, burst her bonds asunder, dispossessed the evil spirit, and delivered her from her long affliction.

Luke 13:12 In-Context

10 And he was teaching in one of the Synagogues on the Sabbath.

11 And there was a woman who had had a disease for eighteen years; she was bent, and was not able to make herself straight.

12 And when Jesus saw her, he said to her, Woman, you are made free from your disease.

13 And he put his hands on her, and she was made straight, and gave praise to God.

14 And the ruler of the Synagogue was angry because Jesus had made her well on the Sabbath, and he said to the people, There are six days in which men may do work: so come on those days to be made well, and not on the Sabbath.
