The answer is: Daughter

Mark 5:22-23

In the Gospel of Mark, the story of Jairus, a synagogue leader, is a remarkable event that highlights Jesus presented as a healer and a figure of hope. When Jairus approaches Jesus, he is desperate for his daughter, who is on the brink of death. This act alone showcases the depth of a father's love and the cultural context in which he means risking his reputation; synagogue leaders were often skeptical about Jesus’ ministry.

Fun trivia to note! Jairus’s daughter is rarely individually named, which puts more focus on the important relationships in this narrative rather than individuals. This reinforces a broader biblical concept: human connection and community are prioritized in Jesus' teachings. Upon getting to Jesus, the passionate plea of Jairus evokes a sense of urgency—a theme that often runs through biblical accounts.

Interestingly, this interaction is set against a backdrop of diverse characters where faith plays a critical role. Right after messaging Jairus's need, Jesus also takes time to stop for a woman who had been suffering from hemorrhage for twelve years, healing her through her own faith (Mark 5:25-34). Both accounts unfold in dramatic juxtaposition, representing physical and emotional healing—making it clear that Jesus is not just mending bodies, but restoring lives. This, echoing throughout the scriptures, offers us deeper reflections on the power of belief and interconnectedness among individuals within a community.
