The woman went to lengths to tell a sad and hopeless story. She saw many doctors. In return she experienced much suffering and used up all her money. The end result was even worse than when she had first begun. You can imagine her being sent home with those familiar words when the limits of medicine are reached: I am sorry, but there is nothing more we can do for you.
When all human solutions have failed, the supernatural power of Jesus waits in the wings, ready to reverse this hopeless story.1
26 Elle avait beaucoup souffert entre les mains de plusieurs médecins, elle avait dépensé tout ce qu'elle possédait, et elle n'avait éprouvé aucun soulagement, mais était allée plutôt en empirant.
