1.1 KiB
1.1 KiB
Connecting Statement:
This begins the account of Jesus healing two blind men.
As Jesus passed by from there
As Jesus was leaving the region
passed by
"was leaving" or "was going"
followed him
This means they were walking behind Jesus, not necessarily that they had become his disciples.
Have mercy on us
It is implied that they wanted Jesus to heal them. (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-explicit)
Son of David
Jesus was not David's literal son, so this may be translated as "Descendant of David." However, "Son of David" is also a title for the Messiah, and the men were probably calling Jesus by this title.
When Jesus had come into the house
This could be either Jesus' own house or the house in Matthew 9:10.
Yes, Lord
The full content of their answer is not stated, but it is understood. AT: "Yes, Lord, we believe you can heal us" (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-ellipsis)
