His declaration is significant as it demonstrates His awareness and authority. This moment is a turning point in the narrative, emphasizing Jesus' role as a teacher and healer. The use of "declared" suggests a public announcement, drawing attention to the importance of the event.<p><b>Someone touched Me</b><br>The phrase indicates Jesus' sensitivity to the faith and needs of individuals, even in a large crowd. This touch was not accidental but intentional, reflecting the woman's faith and desperation. In the cultural context, touching a rabbi or teacher was not common, especially for a woman, which underscores the boldness of her action. This moment also highlights the personal nature of Jesus' ministry, where individual faith is recognized and rewarded.<p><b>for I know that power has gone out from Me</b><br>This statement reveals Jesus' divine nature and the reality of His healing power. The concept of power going out from Him suggests a tangible transfer of divine energy, which is unique to Jesus as the Son of God. It connects to other instances in the Gospels where Jesus heals through touch or command, demonstrating His authority over physical ailments. This power is not diminished by being shared, indicating the infinite nature of His divine resources. Theologically, it points to Jesus as the source of life and healing, fulfilling Old Testament prophecies about the Messiah bringing restoration and wholeness.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/j/jesus.htm">Jesus</a></b><br>Central figure in this passage, the Son of God, who is aware of the power that has gone out from Him.<br><br>2. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_woman_with_the_issue_of_blood.htm">The Woman with the Issue of Blood</a></b><br>Although not directly mentioned in this verse, she is the one who touched Jesus' garment, seeking healing.<br><br>3. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_crowd.htm">The Crowd</a></b><br>A large group of people surrounding Jesus, making it difficult to identify who touched Him.<br><br>4. <b><a href="/topical/c/capernaum.htm">Capernaum</a></b><br>The likely setting of this event, a town where Jesus performed many miracles.<br><br>5. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_disciples.htm">The Disciples</a></b><br>Present with Jesus, they are puzzled by His question given the pressing crowd.<div class="vheading2">Teaching Points</div><b><a href="/topical/t/the_power_of_faith.htm">The Power of Faith</a></b><br>The woman's faith in reaching out to Jesus is a powerful example of how faith can lead to divine intervention.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/j/jesus'_awareness.htm">Jesus' Awareness</a></b><br>Jesus' immediate awareness of the power leaving Him demonstrates His divine omniscience and personal attention to individual needs.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/t/the_nature_of_divine_power.htm">The Nature of Divine Power</a></b><br>The Greek word for "power" (dynamis) indicates a miraculous force, underscoring the supernatural aspect of Jesus' healing ministry.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/p/personal_relationship_with_christ.htm">Personal Relationship with Christ</a></b><br>This passage encourages believers to seek a personal encounter with Jesus, trusting in His power and willingness to respond.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/t/the_importance_of_confession.htm">The Importance of Confession</a></b><br>The woman's eventual confession of her act of faith is a reminder of the importance of acknowledging Jesus' work in our lives.<div class="vheading2">Lists and Questions</div><a href="/top10/lessons_from_luke_8.htm">Top 10 Lessons from Luke 8</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/what_makes_someone_a_fake_christian.htm">What defines someone as a fake Christian?</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/how_was_the_bleeding_woman_healed.htm">How was the woman with the issue of blood healed?</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/why_do_the_faithful_suffer_severely.htm">(Psalm 44:17-19) How is it consistent with other biblical texts that the righteous suffer so severely despite remaining faithful?</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/main_theme_of_acts.htm">What is the main theme of the Book of Acts?</a><a name="commentary" id="commentary"></a><div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/ellicott/luke/8.htm">Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers</a></div>(46) <span class= "bld">Somebody hath touched me.</span>--What St. Mark gives historically as a fact, St. Luke reports as uttered by our Lord Himself.<p><span class= "bld">That virtue is gone out of me.</span>--See Note on <a href="/mark/5-30.htm" title="And Jesus, immediately knowing in himself that virtue had gone out of him, turned him about in the press, and said, Who touched my clothes?">Mark 5:30</a>.
