Matthew 9:27-31 – Blind Men Healed

MT9:27 Traveling from there two blind men followed Jesus, crying out,

“Have mercy on us, Son of David!”[1]

MT9:28 After entering the house the blind men approached Jesus who said to them,

“Do you believe I am able to do this?”

They said,

“Yes, Master!”

MT9:29 Then Jesus touched their eyes, saying,

“Let it happen according to your own faith.”

MT9:30 And their eyes were opened. Then Jesus sternly charged them,

“See to it that nobody learns of this.”[2]

MT9:31 But when these left they made it public throughout that whole area.

*

[1] Son of David: A recognition that Jesus is the Messiah. The designation occurs at Matthew 12:23; 15:22; 20:30, 31; 21:9, 15; Mark 10:47, 48; Luke 18:38, 39.

[2] See to it that nobody learns of this: This must be subtle reverse psychology, for no matter the warnings of the Nazarene it has the opposite affect.
