Coming to Jesus, she thought that if she but touched the hem of His garment, she would be healed; she did touch His hem, and she was healed. Jesus, in answering the Pharisees as to why He spent time with sinners, said to them, “Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick” (Matthew 9:12).
Sa paglapit niya kay Hesus, naisip niya na kung kanyang mahihipo man lang ang laylayan ng Kanyag damit ay gagaling siya at nagawa nga niya iyon at siya'y gumaling. Ng tanungin si Hesus ng mga pariseo kung bakit nakikisalamuha siya sa mga makasalanan, sinabi Niya ", Ang mga walang sakit ay hindi nangangailangan ng manggagamot, kundi ang mga may sakit." (Mateo 9:12).
