Mateo 15:30 Meaning and Commentary

Matthew 15:30

And great multitudes came unto him
From the adjacent places; having heard of his being where he was; and who had either attended on him before, or, however, the fame of him, and his miracles, had reached their ears: these flocked to him, having with them, in their hands, or arms, or upon their backs, or shoulders, leading some, and carrying others, in some form or another,

those that were lame;
either in their legs, or arms:

blind;
in one eye, or both, and that either from their birth, or since:

dumb:
the word signifies both deaf and dumb: these often meet in the same person: and if a man is born deaf, he is always dumb:

maimed:
having lost a limb, an arm, or a leg, or so enfeebled by some disease or another, as the palsy, that their limbs were useless to them. The Persic version reads it "leprous":

and many others;
who were afflicted with various other diseases, too many to be mentioned particularly:

and cast them down at Jesus' feet;
to ease themselves of their burdens, and with a view to move his compassion, believing he was able to cure them: nor do they say a word to him, or desire him to relieve these miserable objects; thinking it was enough to present them to him, and not doubting at all, but he would show favour to them:

and he healed them;
immediately, either by a word speaking, or by touching them, or by putting his hands on them, or without any such outward sign, through a divine power proceeding from him, which, at once, removed all their disorders and complaints.

Mateo 15:30 In-Context

28 Entonces respondiendo Jesús, dijo: Oh mujer, grande es tu fe; sea hecho contigo como quieres. Y fue sana su hija desde aquella hora

29 Y partiendo Jesús de allí, vino junto al mar de Galilea; y subiendo al monte, se sentó allí

30 Y llegaron a él muchas personas, que tenían consigo cojos, ciegos, mudos, mancos, y muchos otros enfermos; y los pusieron a los pies de Jesús, y los sanó

31 De manera que se maravillaba la multitud, viendo hablar los mudos, los mancos sanos, andar los cojos, y ver los ciegos; y glorificaron al Dios de Israel

32 Y Jesús llamando a sus discípulos, dijo: Tengo misericordia de la multitud, que ya hace tres días que perseveran conmigo, y no tienen qué comer; y enviarlos en ayunas no quiero, para que no desmayen en el camino
