The New John Gill Exposition of the Entire Bible Luke 6:19
And the whole multitude sought to touch him… That is,
the multitude of those that were sick and possessed; for they were
persuaded, and they found it true by experience, that if they could but
touch any part of his body, or his garments, they should be cured of
their diseases:
for there went virtue out of him; in great abundance, as water from
a fountain; without his speaking a word, or using any gesture, such as
laying his hands on them:
and they were healed; in this secret and private way, of whatsoever
disease they were afflicted with.
