Contextual Overview

12 A few days later, Jesus went out to a mountain to pray. He stayed there all night praying to God. 13 The next morning he called his followers. He chose twelve of them and called them apostles. These are the ones he chose: 14 Simon (Jesus named him Peter), Andrew, brother of Peter, James, John, Philip, Bartholomew, 15 Matthew, Thomas, James, the son of Alphaeus, Simon, called the Zealot, 16 Judas, the son of James, Judas Iscariot (the one who turned against Jesus). 17 Jesus and the apostles came down from the mountain. Jesus stood on a flat place. A large crowd of his followers was there. Also, there were many people from all around Judea, Jerusalem, and the seacoast cities of Tyre and Sidon. 18 They all came to hear Jesus teach and to be healed of their sicknesses. He healed the people who were troubled by evil spirits. 19 Everyone was trying to touch him, because power was coming out from him. Jesus healed them all.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And the whole multitude sought to touch him,.... That is, the multitude of those that were sick and possessed; for they were persuaded, and they found it true by experience, that if they could but touch any part of his body, or his garments, they should be cured of their diseases:

for there went virtue out of him; in great abundance, as water from a fountain; without his speaking a word, or using any gesture, such as laying his hands on them:

and they were healed; in this secret and private way, of whatsoever disease they were afflicted with.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Virtue - Healing power. See the notes at Mark 5:30.
