'Girl' in the Bible

and He said, "Go out of the room; the little girl is not dead, but asleep." And they laughed at Him.

When however the place was cleared of the crowd, Jesus went in, and on His taking the little girl by the hand, she rose up.

The head was brought on a dish and given to the young girl, and she took it to her mother.

Soon afterwards he went out and stood in the gateway, when another girl saw him, and said, addressing the people there, "This man was with Jesus the Nazarene."

Then, taking her by the hand, He says to her, "Talitha, koum;" that is to say, "Little girl, I command you to wake!"

Instantly the little girl rises to her feet and begins to walk (for she was twelve years old)

The girl immediately came in, in haste, to the King and made her request. "My desire is," she said, "that you will give me, here and now, on a dish, the head of John the Baptist."

and brought his head on a dish and gave it to the young girl, who gave it to her mother.

This led the girl, the portress, to ask Peter, "Are you also one of this man's disciples?" "No, I am not," he replied.

One day, as we were on our way to the place of prayer, a slave girl met us who claimed to be inspired and was accustomed to bring her owners large profits by telling fortunes.
