<p>8:47 <i>And when the woman saw that she was not hidden, she came trembling, and falling down before him, declared in the presence of all the people for what reason she touched him, and how she was healed immediately</i>- As noted on :45, the Lord purposefully pushed her towards making a public statement for Him. We are a city set on a hill and likewise &quot;cannot be hid&quot;. We see another connection with Legion, who feared condemnation and yet also fell before the Lord in worship. The Lord knew her history; but &quot;the truth&quot; to be told forth is a personal confession of our hopeless spiritual history, and the Lord's saving by grace. Yet she had initially &quot;denied&quot; the Lord's activity for her (:45). Perhaps this is included, as are Peter's denials, as comfort for those who under persecution did deny their Lord. He was still open to fellowship with them.</p>
