Context of Mark 10:49

47When he heard that it was Jesus the Nazarene, he began to shout, “Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!” 48Many scolded him to get him to be quiet, but he shouted all the more, “Son of David, have mercy on me!” Jesus stopped and said, “Call him.” So they called the blind man and said to him, “Have courage! Get up! He is calling you.” 50He threw off his cloak, jumped up, and came to Jesus. 51Then Jesus said to him, “What do you want me to do for you?” The blind man replied, “Rabbi, let me see again.”

Those who would come to Jesus, must cast away the garment of their own sufficiency, must free themselves from every…Read the comment
• Tyndale Open Study Notes · v. 46-52The healing of blind Bartimaeus is the last healing miracle in the Gospel of Mark.
