Context of Matthew 9:22
20Then a woman came up behind Jesus and touched the edge of his clothes. She had been suffering from chronic bleeding for twelve years. 21She thought, “If I only touch his clothes, I’ll get well.” When Jesus turned and saw her he said, “Cheer up, daughter! Your faith has made you well.” At that very moment the woman became well. 23Jesus came to the ⌞synagogue⌟ leader’s house. He saw flute players and a noisy crowd. 24He said to them, “Leave! The girl is not dead. She’s sleeping.” But they laughed at him.
