Context of Mark 5:25

23He begs Him a great deal, saying, “My little daughter is near death! Come and lay hands on her so that she may be healed and live!” 24So Yeshua went off with him, and a big crowd was following Him and pressing upon Him. And there was a woman with a blood flow for twelve years, 26who had suffered much under many doctors. She had spent all that she had without benefit; instead, she grew worse. 27When she heard about Yeshua, she came through the crowd from behind and touched His garment.

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

This condition not only harms her health but also makes her ceremonially unclean. This prevents her from participating in normal community life (see Leviticus 15:25–27). She is an example of the faith that Jairus should have.Read the comment
