Jesus said to the woman, your faith has saved you; go in peace — your faith has saved you (hē pistis sou sesōken se): the final declaration combines the salvation language (sesōken, perfect tense — has saved and continues to save) with the faith attribution (your faith). Go in peace: the shalom declaration is the sending into the comprehensive well-being of the restored relationship. The woman who came weeping at the feet of Jesus goes in peace — the transformation communicates the reality of what the forgiveness has accomplished.
