22. The healing of the woman bleeding - Jairo, who was ruler of the synagogue, he fell down at Jesus' feet, begging him to go save a child of twelve, who was dying. Surrounded by a large crowd, Jesus went to Jairo's home, where the path a woman who had an issue of blood twelve years, came behind him, and touched the hem of her dress and immediately halt the bleeding. Jesus asked, "Who touched me?" Peter and his companions told him: "Master, the multitude throng thee and oppress thee, and sayest thou, who touched me?" Jesus then explained that someone had touched because he felt left him a reason. At that moment, seeing the woman who could not hid, came forward and reported as had been cured by touching it. The Master said, "Be of good cheer, daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole: go in peace." (Luke 8:40 to 8:48.) 

23. The people believed that Elijah or one of the prophets had risen - After the healing of Jairo's daughter, Jesus called his twelve disciples and gave them power and authority to ward off demons and cure diseases. And he sent them to preach the kingdom of God and heal the sick, telling them: "Take nothing for your journey, neither staves, nor scrip, nor bread, nor money, neither have two dresses. And whatever house you enter, stay there, and thence depart. And if in any city may not receive you, leaving you there, shake the dust off your feet for a testimony against them." The disciples therefore proceeded through all the villages, preaching the gospel and healing everywhere. When you hear everything that was going on, Herod the Tetrarch, was in doubt because some said that John was risen from the dead, others that Elijah had appeared, and others that one of the old prophets had risen. Herod said then: "The John I beheaded; who is this about whom I hear such things?" And to see him burned. On returning to his task, the apostles told the master all they had done, and he took them, he withdrew to a deserted place in a city called Bethsaida. The crowd soon learned and followed them. Jesus welcomed them and told them the kingdom of God, healing those who needed to be healed. (Luke 9:1 to 9:11.) 

24. Who wants to save his life will lose it - when the crowd, after having been fed, walked away when Jesus was alone with his disciples, the Master asked them: "Who says the people who I am?" They replied, "John the Baptist, others Elijah, and others that one of the old prophets is risen." He then asked, "Who do you say I am?" Anticipating the other, Peter said: "The Christ of God." Jesus told them that nobody says it, explaining it is necessary that the Son of man must suffer many things, being rejected by the scribes and elders, and put to death, after which, the third day rise again. That said, the Master warned: "If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself, take up his cross and follow me. For whoever would save his life shall lose it; but whatever, for my sake, lose his life shall save it. For what shall it profit a man if he gains the whole world, losing or damaging to yourself? Because, regardless of me and of my words be ashamed, be ashamed of him the Son of man, when he comes in his glory, and in the Father and of the holy angels." (Luke 9:18 to 9:26.) 

25. Moses and Elijah appear at Mount Tabor and are seen clearly - Moses and Elijah appeared with Jesus on Mount Tabor. Peter, John and James were present, were heavy with sleep, but when awake, they saw clearly both men. When they came out, Peter said to Christ: "Master, it is good that we're here, and let us make three tents: one for you, one for Moses and one for Elijah." At that moment, a cloud came and overshadowed them. The disciples were afraid and left the cloud a voice said: "This is my beloved Son: hear him." When the voice came, Jesus was alone, and they were silent and did not tell anyone, in those days, they had seen. The next day they went down the hill, went out to find a large crowd. It was then that a man of the people asked Jesus to look for his son, explaining: "Behold, a spirit takes him and suddenly cried, and smashes up froth, and but the large after having broken." The grieving father has said that he had begged his disciples to expel that spirit, but they could not. Jesus answered him, said, "O faithless and perverse generation! until when will I be with you and suffer you?" "Bring me thy son." When the boy was coming, the demon threw him down and convulsed, but Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit and healed the boy and delivered him to his father. (Luke 9:30 to 9:42.)
