Beyond the Stethoscope
_____________________________________________________________________
Beyond the stethoscope, God is able and will always. Mark 10:46 puts the healing of blind
Bartimaeus on a time "when they left as they were just leaving" Jericho; Matthew 20:29
happened as "they had left having left" Jericho and seemingly were already on the way. From
the use of the participle form in the Greek texts in Mat 20:29 it can be concluded that the healing
of the two blind men took place as Jesus and the crowd had already left Jericho behind whereas
Bartimaeus had been sitting right at the exit of the city of Jericho. There are several other points
in which these two records differ; for example, there are not only differences in number of
people and time of the healings, but also differences in their behavior (Bartimaeus was begging,
the other two were not); in what they cried when Jesus passed by; in what Jesus did in
response (he had Bartimaeaus called to come, but the other two he himself called to come to
him); in what they desired from Jesus (Bartimaeus wanted "that I might receive my sight", the
other two wanted "that our eyes may be opened"); in what Jesus answered them and did (with
Bartimaeus he said, "Go thy way; thy faith hath made thee whole", with the other two he
touched their eyes and said nothing).
It is quite remarkable in this study to realize that shortly before these events another blind man
had been healed near Jericho, i.e. when Jesus "was come nigh unto Jericho" (cp. Luke 18:35 19,1).
When we take the records in these three gospels we arrive at the following situation: Jesus was
on his way to Jerusalem, and as he came nigh unto Jericho he met the first blind man whom he
then healed. Then he went into Jericho with his disciples and passed through the city and when
they were leaving Jericho he met the blind beggar Bartimaeaus at the exit of the city. He healed
him when he shortly afterwards in the way met two more blind men he showed mercy on them
as well and healed them. Thus, within a short period of time and all near Jericho four blind men
were healed by Jesus. It was not that uncommon in biblical times and in the Bible lands to meet
such a number of blind people in one city, also these people were not the only blind people
whose healing by Jesus is recorded in the Bible.
What a great and marvelous saviour we have! He did not become tired after the healing of the
first or second blind man within a short period of time, but he also showed mercy to the other
two blind men and received them and healed them immediately.
