"Ok, it is obvious what Scripture is telling us. Other than a Father, who refers to a young woman as "daughter?" "

In Luke 13:15-16, "The Lord then answered him, and said, Thou hypocrite, doth not each one of you on the sabbath loose his ox or his ass from the stall, and lead him away to watering? And ought not this woman, being a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan hath bound, lo, these eighteen years, be loosed from this bond on the sabbath day?" Jesus refers to a woman crippled as a "daughter of Abraham". Obviously she is not Abraham's child but a member of the family of Abraham's seed, just as Jesus refers to the woman as daughter because she was of the family of those that believed in Him. His healing on the sabbath in this instance is like He did at other times in violation of the letter of the man made laws but not the intent of the law as Jesus taught. Lepers came to Him for healing as well as the woman with the issue of blood, all in violation of the letter of the man made law but not the spirit of the law as Jesus taught. That is all contained in the scripture. You don't need to go to tradition or an outside source for the meaning of "come unto me all ye that labor and are heavy laden and I will give you rest."

Right. Jesus identifed her as a daughter of Abraham. Obviously folks lived longer back in the day. And some never died...

However, He did not call her "Daughter" like He did earlier when He was speaking to His Daughter

Excellent, BD. In no way does Sola Scriptura support the suggested interpretation.
