Origen of Alexandria

Catena Aurea by Aquinas (253)

But the same cure which the woman obtained by touching Him, our Saviour confirmed by His word; as it follows, And he said unto her, Thy faith hath made thee whole; go in peace, that is, Be released from thy scourge. And indeed He first heals her soul by faith, then truly her body.

Exposition of the New Testament (1746-1748)

And he said unto her, daughter,.... Instead of frowning upon her, and chiding her for what she had done, he addressed her in a very affable and affectionate manner; bidding her be of good comfort; and not be afraid; this clause is left out in the Vulgate Latin version, as in Mar 5:34 but is in the copies, and other versions: thy faith hath made thee whole, go peace; See Gill on Mat 8:2. See Gill on Mar 5:34. See Gill on Luk 7:50.

Commentary on the Whole Bible (1710)

Note, There may be trembling where yet there is saving faith. She declared before all the people for what cause she had touched him because she believed that a touch would cure her, and it did so. Christ's patients should communicate their experiences to one another.

Matthew Henry

1662–1714

Commentary on the Whole Bible (1710)

Here is an encouragement to Jairus not to distrust the power of Christ, though his daughter was now dead, and they that brought him the tidings advised him not to give the Master any further trouble about her: Fear not, saith Christ, only believe. Note, Our faith in Christ should be bold and daring, as well as our zeal for him.

Expository Thoughts on the Gospels: Luke (lightly modernized text, Grace Gems edition) (1858)

How much misery and trouble — sin has brought into the world! The passage we have just read affords a melancholy proof of this. First we see a distressed father in bitter anxiety about a dying daughter. Then we see a suffering woman , who has been afflicted twelve years with an incurable disease. And these are things which sin has sown broadcast over the whole earth! These are but examples of what is going on continually on every side.
