Luc 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.

Luc 13:12 In-Context

10 Jésus enseignait dans une des synagogues, le jour du sabbat.
11 Et voici, il y avait là une femme possédée d'un esprit qui la rendait infirme depuis dix-huit ans; elle était courbée, et ne pouvait pas du tout se redresser.
12 Lorsqu'il la vit, Jésus lui adressa la parole, et lui dit: Femme, tu es délivrée de ton infirmité.
13 Et il lui imposa les mains. A l'instant elle se redressa, et glorifia Dieu.
14 Mais le chef de la synagogue, indigné de ce que Jésus avait opéré cette guérison un jour de sabbat, dit à la foule: Il y a six jours pour travailler; venez donc vous faire guérir ces jours-là, et non pas le jour du sabbat.
