Luke 8:56 “And her parents were astonished, but He charged them to tell no one what had happened.”
Imagine this from the perspective of the girl’s mother. She was apparently not with Jairus when he went to speak with Jesus. So, once her daughter perished she may well have thought there was no hope. In this case, she would have been waiting for Jairus to return so that the funeral process could begin in earnest.
Instead, Jairus shows up with Jesus. And the whole situation is shortly reversed. Just think of the feelings involved in this interchange. I am sure Jairus and his wife never saw this coming and they certainly never forgot it.
Here again we find Jesus limiting the spread of news about the miracle. Jesus understands us better than we understand ourselves. He allowed the miracle of Lazarus to be proclaimed. But that press served mainly to get Him targeted. The religious elite at the time was not at all friendly to truth.
Heavenly Father, You make us different just by Your Presence. If You hid Yourself from us entirely, what would we be? Oh thank You for showing Yourself! Though we understand You imperfectly, to try is the redemption of our souls. Thank You for Christ and hope of salvation through Him! In the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ I pray and praise You, Amen.
