Matthew
King James Version (KJV)


“While he spake these things unto them, behold, there came a certain ruler, and worshipped him, saying, My daughter is even now dead: but come and lay thy hand upon her, and she shall live.”
King James Version (KJV)
9:18 Just dead - He had left her at the point of death, #Mark 5:23|. Probably a messenger had now informed him she was dead. #Mark 5:22|; Luke 8:41.
Mt 9:18,19 There came a certain ruler. One of the rulers of the synagogue (probably of the synagogue of Capernaum). One of the elders and presiding officers, who convened the assembly, preserved order, invited readers and speakers. His name was Jairus (Mr 5:22 Lu 8:41). Matthew, Mark, and Luke all give this account. From them we learn that the maiden was twelve years old, was dying when the ruler started, was dead when he spoke to Jesus. Compare Mt 9:18-26 Mr 5:22-43 Lu 8:41-56.
ΒΆ While hee spake these things vnto them, beholde, there came a certaine ruler and worshipped him, saying, My daughter is euen now dead: but come, and lay thy hand vpon her, and she shall liue.
