Mark 5:42
Rose up, and walked (anesth kai periepatei). Aorist tense (single act) followed by the imperfect (
the walking went on).
For she was twelve years old (hn gar etwn dwdeka). The age mentioned by Mark alone and here as explanation that she was old enough to walk.
Amazed (ecesthsan). We have had this word before in Matthew 12:23 and Mark 2:12, which see. Here the word is repeated in the substantive in the associative instrumental case (ekstasei megalh), with a great ecstasy, especially on the part of the parents (Luke 8:56), and no wonder.
