Matteo 9:19 Meaning and Commentary

Matthew 9:19

And Jesus arose and followed him
Immediately, without delay, or any more ado: he did not upbraid him with the treatment he and his followers met with, from men of his profession; who cast out of their synagogues such, who confessed him to be the Messiah: nor does he take notice of any weakness in his faith; as that he thought it necessary he should go with him to his house, when he could as well have restored his daughter to life, absent, as present; and that he should prescribe a form of doing it, by laying his hands upon her. These things he overlooked, and at once got up from Matthew's table, and went along with him,

and so did his disciples,
to be witnesses of the miracle; and according to the other evangelists, a large multitude of people besides; even a throng of them, led by curiosity to see this wondrous performance.

Matteo 9:19 In-Context

17 Neppur si mette del vin nuovo in otri vecchi; altrimenti gli otri si rompono, il vino si spande e gli otri si perdono; ma si mette il vin nuovo in otri nuovi, e l’uno e gli altri si conservano.

18 Mentr’egli diceva loro queste cose, ecco uno dei capi della sinagoga, accostatosi, s’inchinò dinanzi a lui e gli disse: La mia figliuola è pur ora trapassata; ma vieni, metti la mano su lei ed ella vivrà.

19 E Gesù, alzatosi, lo seguiva co’ suoi discepoli.

20 Ed ecco una donna, malata d’un flusso di sangue da dodici anni, accostatasi per di dietro, gli toccò il lembo della veste.

21 Perché, diceva fra sé: Sol ch’io tocchi la sua veste, sarò guarita.
