Luke 8:46 Meaning and 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).

45 "Who touched Me?" Jesus asked. When they all denied it, Peter said, "Master, the crowds are hemming You in and pressing against You."

46 "Somebody did touch Me," said Jesus. "I know that power has gone out from Me."

47 When the woman saw that she was discovered, she came trembling and fell down before Him. In the presence of all the people, she declared the reason she had touched Him and how she was instantly cured.

48 "Daughter," He said to her, "your faith has made you well. Go in peace."
