Gospel According to Mark
Chapter
6:53-56
53
And they came over, and went into the land of Gennesaret, and
arrived.
54
So when they were come out of the ship, straightway they knew him,
55
And ran about throughout all that region round about, and began to
carry hither and thither in couches all that were sick, where they
heard that he was.
56
And whithersoever he entered into towns, or cities, or villages, they
laid their sick in the streets, and prayed him that they might touch
at the least the edge of his garment. And as many as touched him,
were made whole.

Brethren:
In
the above-mentioned related scripture, we read of how God instructed
the children of Isreal to prepare the hems of their garments in a
special manner. This was to remind them and to signify their
satisfaction and in likewise remind them of being holy for God
Himself is holy.
And
so, as we read in verse fifty-six, we see that Christ Himself, held
on, and observed that command, but it also, shows that He, likened
Himself to the Creator by being holy, and, signified his authority.
This
authority, as given unto Him by the Holy Spirit, allowed for Him to,
among other things, heal others.
