In Luke 8:45, the woman touches Jesus during the delay—interruption heightens tension before the girl's death.

In Luke 7:12, a widow's only son is dead—parallel to Jairus's only daughter near death; both are only children Jesus raises.

Judges 11:34 tells of Jephthah's only daughter coming to meet him — a parallel to Jairus' only daughter, but with a tragic outcome.

John 4:46 records the nobleman's son being healed — another parent seeking Jesus for a critically ill child.
