NASB | Luke 8:56 Her parents were amazed; but He instructed them to tell no one what had happened. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | Luke 8:56 Her parents were greatly astonished [by the miracle]; but He instructed them to tell no one what had happened. |
Bible Question: Why do you think Jesus asked them to tell no one what had happened with their daughter? |
Bible Answer: Hello chicagochick, We find similar statements in Matt. 8:4, 9:30,12:16, 17:8, and Mark 5:43, 7:36. As the Bible Knowledge Commentary notes, "Jesus’ command not to tell others about the miracle must have stemmed from His desire not to be openly proclaimed as the Messiah until His formal proclamation in Jerusalem." I Hope this helps, BradK |
