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.
