This begins an account of Jesus bringing to life the daughter of a Jewish official after she had died.
|
|
|
|
# these things
|
|
|
|
This refers to the answer Jesus gave John's disciples about fasting.
|
|
|
|
# behold
|
|
|
|
The word "behold" alerts us to a new person in the story. Your language may have a way of doing this.
|
|
|
|
# bowed down to him
|
|
|
|
This is a way someone would show respect in Jewish culture. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/translate-symaction]])
|
|
|
|
# come and lay your hand on her, and she will live
|
|
|
|
This shows that the Jewish official believed Jesus had the power to bring his daughter back to life.
