Why did Jesus ask, “Who touched me?” when He already knew that power had gone out from Him? For twelve years, this woman had suffered in silence. One desperate touch changed her life but instead of allowing her to quietly disappear into the crowd, Jesus called attention to her. Why? In this Bible deep dive, we explore the woman with the issue of blood, the significance of her touch, and the deeper meaning behind Jesus’ question. Through Mark 5:25–34, Luke 8:43–48, and the historical context of her condition, we investigate what the Bible actually says and why this encounter may mean more than a simple healing miracle.
