SEV Biblia, Chapter 8:41
Y he aquí un varn, llamado Jairo, y que era príncipe de la sinagoga, vino, y cayendo a los pies de Jess, le rogaba que entrase en su casa;
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Luke 8:41
Verse 41. A man named Jairus] See these two miracles-the raising of Jairus's daughter, and the cure of the afflicted woman-considered and explained at large, on Matt. ix. 18-26, and Mark v. 22-43.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 41. And behold, there came a man named Jairus , etc.] (See Gill on Mark 5:22). and he was a ruler of the synagogue ; at Capernaum; and it was the more remarkable, that such an one should come to Christ, and express any regard to his person, or faith in his power, and therefore a behold is prefixed to this account; (See Gill on Matthew 9:18). And he fell down at Jesus' feet ; showing great reverence and humility, and as Matthew says, worshipped him; if not in a religious, yet in a civil way: and besought him that he would come into his house ; which was at some distance from thence, as appears by what follows.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 41-56 - Let us not complain of a crowd, and a throng, and a hurry, as long a we are in the way of our duty, and doing good; but otherwise every wis man will keep himself out of it as much as he can. And many a poor sou is healed, and helped, and saved by Christ, that is hidden in a crowd and nobody notices it. This woman came trembling, yet her faith save her. There may be trembling, where yet there is saving faith. Observ Christ's comfortable words to Jairus, Fear not, believe only, and the daughter shall be made whole. No less hard was it not to grieve for the loss of an only child, than not to fear the continuance of that grief But in perfect faith there is no fear; the more we fear, the less we believe. The hand of Christ's grace goes with the calls of his word, to make them effectual. Christ commanded to give her meat. As babes ne born, so those newly raised from sin, desire spiritual food, that the may grow thereby __________________________________________________________________
