As they were leaving Jericho, a large crowd followed Him.

Then they came to Jericho. And as He was leaving Jericho with His disciples and a large crowd, a blind beggar, Bartimaeus, the son of Timaeus, was sitting beside the road [as was his custom].

Jesus replied, “A man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and he encountered robbers, who stripped him of his clothes [and belongings], beat him, and went their way [unconcerned], leaving him half dead.

As He was approaching Jericho [on His way to Jerusalem], it happened that a blind man was sitting beside the road begging.

Jesus entered Jericho and was passing through.

By faith the walls of Jericho fell down after they had been encircled for seven days [by Joshua and the sons of Israel].
