CommentJohn ChrysostomPublic domainMatthew 9:18–22

After His instructions He adds a miracle, which should mightily discomfit the Pharisees, because he who came to beg this miracle, was a ruler of the synagogue and the mourning was great, for she was his only child, and of the age of twelve years, that is, when the flower of youth begins; “While he spake these things unto them, behold, there came one of their chief men unto him.”
