ἐν τῇ Δεκαπόλει, ὅσα ἐποίησεν αὐτῷ ὁ ᾿Ιησοῦς . καὶ πάντες ἐθαύμαζον. 21. ΚΑΙ διαπεράσαντος τοῦ ᾿Ιησοῦ ἐν τῷ πλοίῳ πάλιν εἰς τὸ πέραν,

συνήχθη ὄχλος πολὺς ἐπ᾽ αὐτόν, καὶ ἦν παρὰ τὴν θάλασσαν.

sentative.—emotnxev, perfect, the effect abiding: hath done for me, as you see.— ἠλέησέν σε: pitied thee at the time of cure. ὅσα may be understood before mA. = and how, etc., or καὶ ἠλ. may be a Hebraising way of speaking for ἐλεήσας oe (Grotius).—Kvpids: the sub- ject to the two verbs = God, as in O. T. Sept.—Ver. 20. ἐν τῇ Δεκαπόλει: he took a wide range; implying probably that he was known throughout the ten cities as the famous madman of Gerasa. What was the effect of his mission in that Greek world? Momentary wonder at least (ἐθαύμαζον), perhaps not much more.

Vv. 21-43. The daughter of Fairus and the woman with bloody issue (Mt. ix. 18-26, Lk. viii. 40-56).—Ver. 21. ὄχλος πολὺς: the inescapable crowd, in no hurry to disperse, gathers again about Jesus, on His return to the western shore.—ém’ αὐτόν: not merely to, but after Him, the great centre of attraction (cf. πρὸς a., ii. 13, iv. 1).—mwapa τ. θ., by the sea (here and there); how soon after the arrival the incident happened not indicated (cf. Mt. ix. 18 for sequence and situation), nor is the motive of the narrative. Weiss suggests that the Jairus story is given as another instance of unreceptivity, ver. 40 (Meyer).—Ver. 22. εἷς τ. &.: might imply a plurality

of synagogues, each having its chief ruler. But in Acts xii 14, 15, one syn. has its apxiowvaywlor.—Ver.23. θυγάτριόν p.: an instance of Mk.’s love of diminutives, again in vii, 25.--ἐσχάτως ἔχει, is ex- tremely ill, at death’s door (in Mt. dead), stronger than κακῶς ἔχει; a late Greek phrase (examples in Elsner, Wetstein,. Kypke, etc.), disapproved by Phryn. (Lobeck, p. 389).—tva ἐλθὼν ἐπιθῇς: either used as an imperative (cf. 1 Tim. i. 3, ἵνα παραγγείλῃς), or dependent on some verb understood, e.g., δεόµαί cov (Palairet), ἥκω (Fritzsche); better παρακαλῶ σε, the echo of παρεκάλει ree before (Grotius. Similarly Euthy. Zig.).

Ὑν. 25-34. The woman with an issue. —Ver. 25. dy pice a. = αἱμορροοῦσα of Mt.: in or with a flux of blood. ‘So in Lk. also.—Ver. 26. Details about the case, similarly in Lk., not in Mt.: either they expand or Mt. abbreviates.— πολλὰ παθοῦσα: no wonder, remarks Lightfoot, in view of the endless pre- scriptions for such a case, of which he gives samples (Hor. Heb.); physicians of the empiric or prescientific type.—ra Tap αὐτῆς, her means, cf. οἱ wap’ αὐτοῦ, ili, 21.---μηδὲν oped: nothing profited, the subjective negative, μηδὲν, implies. disappointed expectation.—Ver. 27. axoveaca* to simplify the constructiom
