'Beggar' in the Bible

They came to Jericho. As Jesus and his disciples and a large crowd were leaving Jericho, Bartimaeus the son of Timaeus, a blind beggar, was sitting by the road.

So Jesus stopped and ordered the beggar to be brought to him. When the man came near, Jesus asked him,

Then the neighbors and the people who had seen him previously as a beggar began saying, "Is this not the man who used to sit and beg?"
