Context of Mark 10:49

47When he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to shout, “Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!” 48Many rebuked him and told 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 to the blind man, “Cheer up! On your feet! He’s calling you.” 50Throwing his cloak aside, he jumped to his feet and came to Jesus. 51“What do you want me to do for you?” Jesus asked him. The blind man said, “Rabbi, I want to see.”

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.

It also connects this story to the entry of Jesus into Jerusalem as Israel’s Messiah (the Christ, God's chosen king) in 11:1–11.
