Luke 18:42 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 18:42

And Jesus said unto him, receive thy sight
Be it to thee as thou desirest, look up and see: thus by a word speaking, and power going along with it, without making use of any means, he fulfilled his desire.

Thy faith hath saved thee;
or has obtained salvation for thee, a temporal salvation; and it may be also a spiritual and an eternal one: for that is the concern faith has in salvation; it is the means of obtaining and enjoying it: Christ, the object of faith, is the author of it.

Luke 18:42 In-Context

41 saying, "What wilt thou that I shall do unto thee?" And he said, "Lord, that I may receive my sight."
42 And Jesus said unto him, "Receive thy sight; thy faith hath saved thee."
43 And immediately he received his sight and followed Him, glorifying God. And all the people, when they saw it, gave praise unto God.
