Luke 6:19 - Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible

Bible Comments

And the whole multitude sought to touch him: for there went virtue out of him, and healed them all.

And the whole multitude sought to touch him: for there went virtue, х dunamis (G1411)] - or healing 'efficacy'-compare Mark Luke 6:30,

Out of him, and healed them all, х iato (G2390)] - or 'kept healing,' denoting successive acts of mercy, until it went over "all" that needed it. There is something unusually grand in this touch of description, giving to the reader the impression of a more than usual exuberance of His majesty and grace in this succession of healings, which made itself felt among all the vast multitude.
