Commentary

Commentary on Mark 5:29

Theological / Devotional

Straightway. That is, “immediately.”

Felt. Literally, “knew.” She was aware of the current of power (see on v. 30) that flowed from Christ into her at the moment she touched His garment. She knew that it had entered her feeble body and brought healing.

Plague. Gr. mastix, “a whip,” “a scourge,” or “a plague.” Incurable afflictions were commonly regarded as divine retribution for sins in the life (see on Mark 1:40; John 9:2).
