  • Mark 5:21-43

Read Mark 5:29 with 5:21-43. This verse moves Mark 5:21-43's connected sequence forward at Mark 5:29 through the report, “And straightway the fountain of her blood was dried up; and she felt in her body that she was healed of that plague”. The complete unit's controlling movement is: Jairus asks for his dying daughter; on the way an excluded, impoverished woman touches Jesus and is publicly restored as daughter; Jesus then raises the twelve-year-old girl and orders care and food.

Why It Needs Context

This verse moves Mark 5:21-43's connected sequence forward at Mark 5:29 through the report, “And straightway the fountain of her blood was dried up; and she felt in her body that she was healed of that plague”. Its connective or scene-specific force depends on Mark 5:21-43; isolating it would detach the selected action, response, speaker, or referent from the unit that explains it.
