21 Now when Jesus had crossed over again by boat to the other side, a great crowd gathered to Him; and He was by the sea. 22 And behold one of the rulers of the synagogue came, Jarius by name. And when he saw Him, he fell at His feet. 23 and begged Him earnestly, saying, “My little daughter lies at the point of death. Come and lay your hands on her, that she may be healed, and she will live.” 24 So Jesus went with him, and a great multitude followed Him and (thronged) Him. 25 Now a certain woman had a flow of blood for twelve years, 26 and had suffered many things from many physicians. She had spent all that she had and was no better, but rather grew worse. 27 When she (heard about Jesus,) she came behind Him and (touched) His garment. 28 For she said, “If only I may (touch) His clothes, I shall be made well. 29 Immediately the flow of her blood was dried up, and she felt in her body that she was healed of the affliction. 30 And Jesus immediately knowing in Himself that power had gone out of Him, turned around in the crowd and said, “Who touched My clothes?” 31 But His disciples said to Him, “You see the multitude (thronging) You, and You say, “Who touched Me?” 32 And He (looked around to see her) who had done this thing. 33 But the woman, fearing and trembling, knowing what had happened to her, came and fell down before Him and told Him the whole truth. 34 And He said to her, “Daughter, your faith has made you well. Go in peace, and be healed of your affliction.”

9 Now when He had departed from there, He went into the synagogue (church) 10 And behold, there was a man who had a withered hand. And they asked Him, saying, “Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath?” That they might accuse Him. 11 Then He said to them, “What man there among you who has one sheep, and if it falls into a pit on the Sabbath, will not lay hold of it and lift it out? 12 “Of how much more value then is a man than a sheep? Therefore it is lawful to do good on the Sabbath.”
13 Then He said to the man, (“Stretch out your hand.”) And (he stretched it out,) and it was restored as whole as the other.
Matthew 12:9-13

Wherever He entered, into villages, cities, or the country, they laid the sick in the marketplaces, and begged Him that they might just touch the hem of His garment. And (as many as touched Him were made well.) And begged Him that they might only touch His garment. And (as many as touched Him) were made (perfectly) well.
Mark 6:56

5 Then the Pharisees and scribes asked Him, “Why do Your disciples not walk according to the tradition of the elders, but eat bread with unwashed hands?” 6 He answered and said to them, “Well did Isaiah prophesy of you hypocrites, as it is written. This people honors Me with their lips, but their heart is far from Me.” 7 And in vain they worship Me, teaching as doctrines the commandments of men.” 8″For laying aside the commandment of God, you hold the tradition of men, the washing of pitchers and cups, and many other such things you do.” 9 He said to them, “All too well you reject the commandment of God, that you may keep “your” tradition.”
Mark 7:5-9
