A synagogue leader The term "synagogue leader" refers to a person of significant authority and respect within the Jewish community. In the Greek, the word used is "archisynagogos," which denotes someone responsible for the administration and order of synagogue services. This role was crucial in maintaining the spiritual and communal life of the Jewish people. Historically, synagogue leaders were often well-versed in the Scriptures and held in high esteem, making Jairus's approach to Jesus a profound act of humility and faith, as he steps beyond traditional boundaries to seek help from Jesus. named Jairus came and seeing Jesus he fell at His feet Jairus.--The name is given by St. Mark and St. Luke only. It was a Graecised form of the Jair of Judges 10:3, Numbers 32:41. It meets us in the Apocryphal portion of Esther (xi. 2) as the name of the father of Mardocheus, or Mordecai. Verses 22, 23. - One of the rulers of the synagogue, Jairus by name. He appears to have been one of the "college of elders," who administered the affairs of the synagogue. The name Jairus, or "Ya eiros," is probably the Greek form of the Hebrew Jair, "he will illuminate." He fell at his feet, and besought him greatly; it is literally (πίπτει καὶ παρεκάλει), he falleth at his feet, and beseecheth him. We picture him to ourselves, making his way through the crowd, and as he approached Jesus, kneeling down, and then bending his head towards him, until his forehead touched the ground. My little daughter is at the point of death. St. Matthew says, "is even now dead;" St. Luke says, "she Jay a dying." The broken sentences of the father are very true to nature. All the expressions point to the same conclusion, that she was in articulo mortis. In each narrative the ruler is represented as asking that Christ would hasten to his house. He had not reached the higher faith of the Gentile centurion, "Speak the word only."Parallel Commentaries ... Greek Aεἷς (heis) Adjective - Nominative Masculine Singular Strong's 1520: One.
