Exegesis
The Aramaic utterance Talitha koum {Ταλιθὰ κουμ | Ta-li-thà koum} is preserved verbatim, followed by the explanatory relative clause ho estin methermēneuomenon {ὅ ἐστιν μεθερμηνευόμενον | hó é-stin me-ther-mē-neu-ó-me-non}, literally “which is being interpreted,” introducing the Greek rendering of the Aramaic words.
In context — Mark 5:41
And taking the hand of the child, He says to her, “Talitha koum,” which is translated, “The little girl , I say to you, arise.”
