Luke 8:48 - Coke's Commentary on the Holy Bible

Daughter, be of good comfort:— What is here said of this woman, is frequently asserted by our Saviour upon other occasions, namely, that the miraculous cure which he performed was in some measure in consequence of the patient's faith. We find likewise that faith was actually required, sometimes of the persons themselves who were to be healed, at other times of those who interceded for them, and were to attest the faith of the miracle. The reasons for this have been assigned in the note on Mark 9:20-24.
