SEV Biblia, Chapter 9:19
Y se levant Jess, y le sigui con sus discípulos.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Matthew 9:19
Verse 19. Jesus arose, and followed him] Our blessed Lord could have acted as well at a distance as present; but he goes to the place, to teach his ministers not to spare either their steps or their pains when the salvation of a soul is in question. Let them not think it sufficient to pray for the sick in their closets; but let them go to their bed-sides, that they may instruct and comfort them. He can have little unction in private, who does not also give himself up to public duties.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 19. And Jesus arose and followed him , etc.] Immediately, without delay, or any more ado: he did not upbraid him with the treatment he and his followers met with, from men of his profession; who cast out of their synagogues such, who confessed him to be the Messiah: nor does he take notice of any weakness in his faith; as that he thought it necessary he should go with him to his house, when he could as well have restored his daughter to life, absent, as present; and that he should prescribe a form of doing it, by laying his hands upon her. These things he overlooked, and at once got up from Matthews table, and went along with him, and so did his disciples , to be witnesses of the miracle; and according to the other evangelists, a large multitude of people besides; even a throng of them, led by curiosity to see this wondrous performance.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 18-26 - The death of our relations should drive us to Christ, who is our life And it is high honour to the greatest rulers to attend on the Lor Jesus; and those who would receive mercy from Christ, must honour him The variety of methods Christ took in working his miracles, perhaps wa because of the different frames and tempers of mind, which those wer in who came to him, and which He who searches the heart perfectly knew A poor woman applied herself to Christ, and received mercy from him by the way. If we do but touch, as it were, the hem of Christ's garment by living faith, our worst evils will be healed; there is no other rea cure, nor need we fear his knowing things which are a grief and burde to us, but which we would not tell to any earthly friend. When Chris entered the ruler's house, he said, Give place. Sometimes, when the sorrow of the world prevails, it is difficult for Christ and his comforts to enter. The ruler's daughter was really dead, but not so to Christ. The death of the righteous is in a special manner to be looke on as only a sleep. The words and works of Christ may not at first be understood, yet they are not therefore to be despised. The people wer put forth. Scorners who laugh at what they do not understand, are no proper witnesses of the wonderful works of Christ. Dead souls are no raised to spiritual life, unless Christ take them by the hand: it is done in the day of his power. If this single instance of Christ' raising one newly dead so increased his fame, what will be his glor when all that are in their graves shall hear his voice, and come forth those that have done good to the resurrection of life, and those tha have done evil to the resurrection of damnation!
