Mark uses a structure of sandwiching and collation. He makes us read that story in the context of Jesus going to heal this little girl which reading those together I think heightens the question. If you're reading Jesus on his way to perform what may end up being raising somebody from the dead and on his way a woman touches him and power flows out of him I think you're left to ask, oh my goodness does he have any power left to heal this poor little girl. And in fact he does. Matthew does it slightly differently in Matthew the very next passage Matthew 1413 says when Jesus's heard about the death of John the Baptist by ship into a desert place apart.
Just how many Herods threatened the life of Jesus? Dr. Jason Combs explores the many Herods, their effect on Jesus and especially on the life, and death of John the Baptist and the call to sacrifice for the Savior.
