3 questions about the law
5. { mosaic } - James 4:1-2
What is causing the quarrels and
fights among you? Isn’t it the
whole army of evil desires at war
within you? You want what you
don’t have, so you scheme and kill
to get it. You are jealous for what
others have, and you can’t possess
it, so you fight and quarrel to take
it away from them.

went back to the other side of the
lake, where a large crowd
gathered around him on the

synagogue, whose name was

Jesus went with him, and all the
people followed, crowding around
him. A woman in the crowd had
suffered for twelve years with
constant bleeding. She had suffered
a great deal from many doctors,
and over the years she had spent
everything she had to pay them,
but she had gotten no better.
In fact, she had gotten worse. She
had heard about Jesus, so she came
up behind him through the crowd

touch his robe, I will be healed.”

she had been healed of her terrible
condition.

If a woman has a flow of blood that
is unrelated to her menstrual period,
or if the blood continues beyond the
normal period, she is ceremonially

period, the woman will be unclean
as long as the discharge continues.
Any bed she lies on and any object
she sits on during that time will be
unclean, just as during her normal
menstrual period.
13. { mosaic } - Leviticus 15:25-27
If any of you touch these things,
you will be ceremonially unclean.
You must wash your clothes and
bathe yourself in water, and you
will remain unclean until evening.

power had gone out from him, so
he turned around in the crowd and
asked, “Who touched my robe?”
15. { mosaic } - Mark 5:31

this crowd pressing around you.
How can you ask, ‘Who touched
me?’ ”
But he kept on looking around to
see who had done it.

Then the frightened woman,
trembling at the realization of what
had happened to her, came and fell

well. Go in peace. Your suffering is
over.”
17. { mosaic } - Mark 5:35

and weeping and wailing.

He went inside and asked, “Why all
this commotion and weeping? The
child isn’t dead; she’s only asleep.”

made them all leave, and he took
the girl’s father and mother and his
three disciples into the room where
the girl was lying.

“Talitha koum,” which means
“Little girl, get up!” And the girl,
who was twelve years old,
immediately stood up and walked
around!

totally amazed. Jesus gave them
strict orders not to tell anyone what
had happened, and then he told
