41 Just then, a man named Jairus came. He was a leader of the synagogue.  * 8:41 Lk 13:14; Ac 13:15; 18:8,17 He fell down at Jesus’s feet and pleaded with him to come to his house, 42 because he had an only daughter  * 8:42 Lk 7:12 about twelve years old, and she was dying.

While he was going, the crowds were nearly crushing him.  * 8:42 Mk 3:9
