And Jesus said unto him,
Go your way; your faith has made you whole.
And immediately he received his sight, and followed Jesus in the way.
All Commentaries on Mark 10:52 Go To Mark 10
John Chrysostom
AD 407
The blind man calls the Lord, the Son of David, hearing the way in which the passing multitude praised Him, and feeling sure that the expectation of the prophets was fulfilled. There follows: “And many charged him that he should hold his peace.”
Or He asks, lest men should think that what He granted the man was not what he wanted. For it was His practice to make the good disposition of those who were to be cured known to all men, and then to apply the remedy, in order to stir up others to emulation, and to show that he who was to be cured was worthy to obtain the grace. It goes on: “The blind man said unto Him, Lord, that I may receive my sight.”
