Jesus Heals Blind Bartimaeus (MRK 10:46-52)

[10:46] And they came to Jericho. And as he was leaving Jericho with his disciples and a great crowd, Bartimaeus, a blind beggar, the son of Timaeus, was sitting by the roadside.

[10:47] And when he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to cry out and say, “Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!”

[10:48] And many rebuked him, telling him to be silent. But he cried out all the more, “Son of David, have mercy on me!”

[10:49] And Jesus stopped and said, “Call him.” And they called the blind man, saying to him, “Take heart. Get up; he is calling you.”

[10:50] And throwing off his cloak, he sprang up and came to Jesus.

[10:51] And Jesus said to him, “What do you want me to do for you?” And the blind man said to him, “Rabbi, let me recover my sight.”

[10:52] And Jesus said to him, “Go your way; your faith has made you well.” And immediately he recovered his sight and followed him on the way.
