Matthew 9:27-31
The Son of David has mercy on the blind and opens their eyes according to their faith.
27 As Jesus passed by from there, two blind men followed him, calling out and saying, “Have mercy on us, son of David!”
28 When he had come into the house, the blind men came to him. Jesus said to them, “Do you believe that I am able to do this?” They told him, “Yes, Lord.”
29 Then he touched their eyes, saying, “According to your faith be it done to you.”
30 Their eyes were opened. Jesus strictly commanded them, saying, “See that no one knows about this.”
31 But they went out and spread abroad his fame in all that land.
The Son of David has mercy on the blind and opens their eyes according to their faith.
Matthew records Jesus healing two blind men who cry for mercy to the Son of David, showing that messianic mercy responds to faith and opens the eyes of the needy.
Jesus is moving from the previous healing scene and enters a house where the blind men come to him.
Authority to Forgive, Mercy for Sinners, and Compassion for the Harvest
Jesus, the merciful Son of Man and Son of David, has authority to forgive sins, call sinners, restore the broken, and send workers into the harvest of shepherdless people.
