Context of Luke 8:49

47The woman saw that she couldn’t hide. Trembling, she quickly bowed in front of him. There, in front of all the people, she told why she touched him and how she was cured at once. 48Jesus told her, “Daughter, your faith has made you well. Go in peace!” While Jesus was still speaking to her, someone came from the synagogue leader’s home. He said, “Your daughter is dead. Don’t bother the teacher anymore.” 50When Jesus heard this, he told the synagogue leader, “Don’t be afraid! Just believe, and she will get well.” 51Jesus went into the house. He allowed no one to go with him except Peter, John, James, and the child’s parents.
