Two Daughters Healed: Matthew 9:18-26

While he was saying this, a synagogue leader came and knelt before him and said, "My daughter has just died. But come and put your hand on her, and she will live."

A synagogue leader—a man of position, respectability, religious authority—kneeling before Jesus. His daughter was dead. Not sick, not dying. Dead.

But come and put your hand on her, and she will live. The faith was extraordinary. Even death was not beyond this rabbi's power.

Jesus got up and went with him, and so did his disciples.
