What does the Bible say about the hem of Jesus' garment?

Answered in 1 source

The hem of Jesus' garment symbolizes His righteousness and the healing power of faith in Him.

In Matthew 14:36, we see individuals touching the hem of Jesus' garment, seeking healing and wholeness. This action illustrates their faith in His ability to heal their diseases. The hem itself symbolizes the completeness and righteousness of Christ, representing what He accomplished as our great High Priest. As indicated in Exodus 28, the clothing of the high priest, including the hem, was designed by God to symbolize His redemptive work. Therefore, touching His hem represents an act of faith that seeks the grace and mercy that come from Christ alone.
