Is this related to Luke 8:46 And Jesus said, Somebody has touched me: for I perceive that virtue is gone out of me.
Other translations use power instead of virtue.

I think he felt power flow from Him as the woman touched Him. Her faith accessed His healing power and made a withdrawal.

Jesus felt goodness transfer from him to the woman when she touched him (or his garment). Why did goodness transfer - maybe because being healed of her condition was good and an act of goodness towards her on the part of God/Jesus? Seems like that may be part of the explanation of the verse's meaning.

Yes never heard of virtue. I felt power going out of Me it's in Dutch. The power of the Holy Spirit could heal her cause she touched Him in faith. He said her faith had made her whole.

virtue - Δυναμιν , Divine or miraculous power.
It was her faith in His power to heal her, but it was a faith accompanied by courage to come boldly to Him to receive healing.

What a great way of putting it. Like part of the downpayment on her inheritance would you say?
yah there were so many people crowded about that day but something took place for that transfer to take place. Courage and faith seem to be the keywords.
I heard it translated both ways but couldn't understand it as virtue in the modern sense.

Numbers 15:38 — Numbers 15:39
Speak to the children of Israel and tell them to make for themselves fringes on the borders of their garments throughout their generations and to put on the fringe of each border a cord of blue.
And it shall be a fringe for you, so that when you see it you will remember all the commandments of Jehovah and do them; so that you do not seek after your own heart and your own eyes, according to which you committed fornication.

This also speaks of the binding of the hem of the priestly garment, signifying our conduct and behavior under divine government. Matthew 9:20
The jostling crowd all touched His garment and some verses say that all who touched were saved ... there still seems to be a missing piece of the puzzle tho !?!
Deuteronomy 22:12
You shall make twisted cords upon the four corners of your garment with which you cover yourself.
Matthew 23:5
“Everything they do is done for people to see: They make their phylacteries wide and the tassels on their garments long;
Luke 8:44
She came up behind him and touched the edge of his cloak, and immediately her bleeding stopped.
