Jesus comes to the nadir of his public life so far. The "Bread of Life" chapter (John 6) ends with not just the "crowds" leaving Jesus, but even his own disciples. Why?
And Peter with his eleven compadres? "Will you also go?" Jesus asks them.
Peter finally gets it right: "To whom shall we go...you have the words of eternal life!"

Mark employs an odd literary style to make two great Gospel stories into one: the "Gospelburger". He slices the first story in half (Jairus and his 12-year old daughter who is dying) and slips into the middle another story, the woman suffering from a flow of blood for twelve years. As the two stories are served up as one, it becomes clear they are together a "theophany moment" for the Evangelist: God's presence in Jesus is made manifestly manifest! But not with clouds and booming voices as at the Jordan River or the Mount of Transfiguration, but through that most human of gifts, touch!
