Welcome to part two with Dr. Ryan Sharp, Matthew 9 and 10, Mark 5 and Luke 9.

I have a thought from S. Kent Brown that I want to share.

He said, this is exactly where Jesus wanted her, this woman, in the open, in the public

square, in full view of others.

After all, he understood that almost everyone in town knew of her condition and because

customarily people in that society thought that those who carried some abnormality were

cursed of God.

As in the case of Elizabeth, the previous Baron Mother of John, Jesus wanted the woman's

new whole status to be known in the wider community.

She was no longer to be avoided and worse scorned.

In an instant, she was restored to her waiting family, to her patient friends, her lost synagogue

and her beloved temple.

The lesson, the driving force beneath her actions had been her hope.

Her hope filled faith in Jesus' powers and he affirmed, daughter, be of good comfort,

that faith had made the whole.

He got in the Luke account.

More lies beneath the verb rendered, have made the whole, then meets the eye.

The verb means to save.

It has to do with her salvation.

Her faith had brought her to that divine door, now open to her.

Beautiful thought there from Dr. Brown.

The idea of suffered much from physicians.
