📚 Contexto Histórico
In the Gospel of Matthew, this verse occurs during Jesus' ministry in Galilee, where He is approached by Jairus, a synagogue leader, whose daughter has just died. Jesus declares that the girl is not dead but asleep, indicating that her condition is temporary and under His control, which reflects the cultural understanding of sleep as a reversible state. This event highlights the skepticism of the mourners, who laughed at Jesus, as it reveals the tension between Jewish expectations of miracles and the doubt among witnesses about His divine authority.
