Luke 8

"39 “Return to your own house, and tell what great things God has done for you.” And he went his way and proclaimed throughout the whole city what great things Jesus had done for him."

"56 And her parents were astonished, but He charged them to tell no one what had happened."


I'm always puzzled at why Jesus conceals his miracles at one point but tells others to spread the great things at other times. Perhaps a study of miracles and what Jesus tells the people afterward is needed to find out a reason. However, from this chapter, it seems that people would find out anyway about the girl being resurrected even if her parents tell no one. Anyway...if anyone has any thoughts, please feel free to share.
