At once Jesus was aware that power had gone out from Him.
This phrase highlights Jesus' divine awareness and sensitivity to the spiritual realm. The immediate awareness signifies His omniscience, a characteristic of His divine nature. The "power" mentioned here refers to the healing virtue that emanated from Him, indicating His role as the source of divine healing. This event occurs within the context of Jesus' ministry, where He performed numerous miracles, demonstrating His authority over sickness and affirming His identity as the Messiah. The concept of power going out from Him also connects to the Old Testament understanding of God as the ultimate healer (Exodus 15:26). This moment underscores the personal nature of Jesus' miracles, as He is not merely a conduit but actively involved in the healing process.

Turning to the crowd,
Jesus' action of turning to the crowd signifies His intention to address the situation publicly. This reflects His teaching method, often using real-life events to impart spiritual truths. The crowd, a common element in Jesus' ministry, represents the diverse group of people drawn to Him, including those seeking healing, teaching, and those curious about His identity. This setting emphasizes the communal aspect of His ministry, where personal encounters often had broader implications for the community. The act of turning also suggests His readiness to engage with individuals, highlighting His accessibility and willingness to connect with those around Him.

He asked, “Who touched My garments?”
Jesus' question is not due to ignorance but serves a purpose in drawing out the woman who touched Him. This question invites the woman to step forward, allowing her to publicly testify to her healing and faith. It also serves to teach the crowd about the nature of faith and the personal relationship one can have with Jesus. The act of touching His garments reflects the cultural belief in the power of physical contact with holy persons or objects, a common practice in the ancient Near East. This moment parallels other instances in the Gospels where Jesus uses questions to provoke thought and reveal deeper truths (e.g., Matthew 16:13-16). The question also highlights the importance of acknowledging Jesus' role in the miracle, giving glory to God and reinforcing the idea that faith in Him is the key to receiving His blessings.

Teaching Points
Faith Activates Divine Power
The woman's faith was the catalyst for her healing. Believers are encouraged to have faith in Jesus' power to work in their lives.

Jesus' Awareness and Compassion
Jesus' immediate awareness of the power leaving Him shows His attentiveness to individual needs. We can trust that Jesus is aware of our struggles and is compassionate towards us.

The Personal Nature of Jesus' Ministry
Despite the crowd, Jesus sought out the individual who touched Him. This teaches us that Jesus values personal relationships and encounters with each believer.

The Role of Confession and Testimony
The woman's eventual confession of her action and healing serves as a testimony to others. Believers are encouraged to share their experiences of Jesus' work in their lives.

The Power of Jesus is Available to All
The healing was not limited to a specific group but was available to anyone who approached Jesus in faith. This inclusivity is a reminder of the universal offer of salvation and healing through Christ.(30) That virtue had gone out of him.--Literally, knowing fully in Himself the virtue that had gone out of Him. The word "virtue" is used in the old medical sense, the power or force which brings about a certain definite result. So men spoke of the soporific "virtue" of this or that drug. And the term is used here, not less than in Luke 5:17, with a like technical precision, for the supernatural power that, as it were, flowed out at the touch of faith.

Verse 30. - The words in the Greek are ἐπιγνοὺς ἐν ἑαυτῷ τὴν ἐξ αὑτοῦ δύναμιν ἐξελθοῦσαν: Jesus, perceiving in himself that the power emanating from him had gone forth, turned him about in the crowd, and said, Who touched my garments? Christ sees the invisible grace in its hidden operations; man only sees its effects, and not always these.
