Luke 8:54 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 8:54

And he put them all out
Of the room, where the maiden lay, all the mourners and pipers; all excepting the parents of the child, and his three disciples, This clause is left out in the Vulgate Latin, and Ethiopic versions; nor was it in two of Beza's ancient copies, and in two of Stephens's; but in the rest, and in the other versions:

and took hereby the hand, and called, saying;
in the Syriac language, "Talitha cumi", as in ( Mark 5:41 )

Maid, arise;
(See Gill on Mark 5:41).

Luke 8:54 In-Context

52 Meanwhile, everyone was weeping and mourning for her. But Jesus said, “Stop weeping; she is not dead but asleep.”

53 And they laughed at Him, knowing that she was dead.

54 But Jesus took her by the hand and called out, “Child, get up!”

55 Her spirit returned, and at once she got up. And He directed that she be given something to eat.

56 Her parents were astounded, but Jesus ordered them not to tell anyone what had happened.
