Jesus heals the woman with faith

Mark 5 includes three main accounts:

  1. The Healing of the Gerasene Demoniac: Jesus casts out a legion of demons into a herd of pigs, which then rush into the sea and drown.
  2. The Woman with the Issue of Blood: A woman, sick for twelve years, is healed by touching Jesus’ cloak. Her faith is highlighted as the reason for her healing.
  3. Jairus’ Daughter: Jesus raises a synagogue leader’s daughter from the dead, demonstrating his power over death.

This chapter emphasizes the power of faith in Jesus’ ability to heal and restore, whether from spiritual, physical, or mortal afflictions.
