The Daughter of Jairus Restored to Life

Jesus shows his power over both sickness and death. Earlier in the chapter, he healed a woman who seemed incurable, and now he will show that even death is not beyond his help. Death and disease came into the world because of Adam's sin, but Jesus, the "second Adam," brings hope and victory over them.

v. 35: Messengers come to Jairus with sad news: Your daughter is dead. Why trouble the Master any further? (Mark 5:35 ^a). Usually, when someone dies, we feel we must accept God's will and move on, remembering words like, The Lord gave, and the Lord has taken away (Job 1:21 ^b). But here, the story does not end with death. Jesus is present, and something extraordinary is about to happen.
