Thematic Bible



Then they came to Jericho. And as He was leaving Jericho, with His disciples and a great crowd, Timeus' son, Bartimeus, a blind beggar, was sitting on the roadside. When he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to shout, "Jesus, you son of David, do pity me!" Many of the people began to rebuke him and to tell him to keep quiet, but all the louder he kept shouting, "You son of David, do pity me!" read more.
So Jesus stopped and said, "Tell him to come here." Then they told the blind man, saying, "Cheer up! Get up! He is calling for you." He threw off his coat and jumped up and went to Jesus. Then Jesus asked him, "What do you want me to do for you?" The blind man answered, "Good Teacher, I want to see again." Then Jesus said to him, "Go; your faith has cured you." And all at once he could see again, and began to follow Jesus along the road.

So at once he saw again, and began to follow Him, giving thanks to God. And all the people saw it and gave praise to God. Verse ConceptsFollowing Jesus Christ
