And a woman having an issue of blood twelve years, etc.] The Persic version reads, “there was a woman in that city”, etc. in the city of Capernaum; (See Gill on “<400920>Matthew 9:20”). Which had spent all her living upon physicians; she had applied to one physician and another, and had consumed all her substance in this way: neither could be healed of any; though she had followed the directions and prescriptions of many, who pretended they were able to cure her; (See Gill on “<410526>Mark 5:26”).
