Context of Mark 5:27
25A woman who had had a hemorrhage for twelve years, 26and had endured much at the hands of many physicians, and had spent all that she had and was not helped at all, but instead had become worse-- after hearing about Jesus, she came up in the crowd behind Him and touched His cloak. 28For she had been saying to herself, “If I just touch His garments, I will get well.” 29And immediately the flow of her blood was dried up; and she felt in her body that she was healed of her disease.
