What did Jesus mean by saying, when his garment was touched by the diseased female in a crowd—Who touched me? for he perceived that virtue had gone out of him?
If you were to touch this medium while he is in trance, he would feel the power passing from him.
The poor woman, by her faith, had established the necessary sympathy, and touching his garment, that moment Jesus felt the power flowing from him.
He was full to overflowing of the healing, life-giving power.
You have another illustration of this in his cure of a blind man in the account of which it is said that he spat on the ground, and making clay with his hands, he anointed the eyes of the blind man and gave him sight.
The power was not in the clay; it was in his fingers.
—Spirit Hafed, Prince of Persia
