Luke 18:37 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 18:37

And they told him, that Jesus of Nazareth passeth by.
] Some of the company answered him, that Jesus, the prophet of Nazareth, so much talked of, and said to be the Messiah, who was become so famous for his doctrines and miracles, for healing diseases, and dispossessing devils, was just "then" passing by; and this occasioned the noise and clamour.

Luke 18:37 In-Context

35 Jesus was approaching Jericho. A blind man was sitting by the side of the road begging.
36 The blind man heard the crowd going by. He asked what was happening.
37 They told him, "Jesus of Nazareth is passing by."
38 So the blind man called out, "Jesus! Son of David! Have mercy on me!"
39 Those who led the way commanded him to stop. They told him to be quiet. But he shouted even louder, "Son of David! Have mercy on me!"
