Mark 7:33-35

33After he took him aside, away from the crowd, Jesus put his fingers into the man’s ears. Then he spit and touched the man’s tongue.

34He looked up to heaven and with a deep sigh said to him, “Ephphatha!” (which means “Be opened!”).

35At this, the man’s ears were opened, his tongue was loosened and he began to speak plainly.
