• Matthew Henry Concise Commentary · v. 21-34Verses 21-34 A despised gospel will go where it will be better received.

• Tyndale Open Study Notes · v. 24-34As Jesus heads to Jairus's home, followed by a large crowd, Mark introduces a woman in the crowd who suffers from constant bleeding.

She is an example of the faith that Jairus should have.Read the comment
