The Greek verb used here, "ἐλθὼν" (elthōn), suggests a deliberate movement towards someone in need. In the cultural context of the time, a rabbi or teacher approaching a woman, especially in a private setting, was unusual. This action underscores Jesus' willingness to break social norms to extend His healing and compassion. It reflects His mission to reach out to all individuals, regardless of societal barriers.took her by the hand The act of taking someone by the hand is a powerful gesture of connection and support. In the Greek, "κρατήσας" (kratēsas) implies a firm and intentional grasp, symbolizing strength and assurance. This physical touch signifies Jesus' personal involvement in the healing process. In a broader biblical context, touch is often associated with imparting blessing and healing, as seen in other miracles performed by Jesus. This act also highlights the personal nature of Jesus' ministry, emphasizing His desire to connect with individuals on a personal level.and helped her up The phrase "helped her up" is translated from the Greek "ἤγειρεν" (ēgeiren), which means to raise or lift up. This word is often used in the New Testament to describe resurrection or raising from the dead, suggesting a deeper spiritual significance. It implies not just a physical healing but a restoration to life and vitality. This action symbolizes Jesus' power to restore and renew, offering a foretaste of the ultimate resurrection and new life He promises to all believers.The fever left her The immediate departure of the fever upon Jesus' touch demonstrates His authority over sickness and the physical world. The Greek word "ἀφῆκεν" (aphēken) indicates a release or letting go, suggesting that the fever had no choice but to obey Jesus' command. This miraculous healing serves as a testament to Jesus' divine power and His role as the Great Physician. It also reinforces the theme of Jesus' authority, which is a recurring motif throughout the Gospel of Mark.and she began to serve them The response of Peter's mother-in-law to her healing is immediate service, highlighting a key aspect of discipleship. The Greek word "διηκόνει" (diēkonei) is used, which is the root for the term "deacon," indicating service or ministry. Her actions reflect a heart of gratitude and a desire to serve others as a response to Jesus' transformative work in her life.
