Mateus 20:32 Meaning and Commentary

Matthew 20:32

And Jesus stood still
Made a full stop, when he was near, or right against where these blind men sat; which shows the strength of faith, the force of prayer, and the great regard Christ has to both:

and called them:
himself, being near unto them, and within the reach of his voice; or he commanded them to be brought to him, as Mark says: he ordered others to call them, or let them know, that it was his will they should come to him; upon which they threw away their garments, their long upper garments, which were some hindrance to a quick motion, at least Bartimaeus did; that they might be the sooner with him: and when they were come to him, he said,

what will ye that I shall do unto you?
is it alms you want? or would you have your sight restored? This question he put, not as being ignorant of their desires, but to show both his power and willingness to do anything for them they should ask; and that their faith in him might be made manifest, and the people have their expectations raised, and they prepared to attend the miracle now to be wrought.

Mateus 20:32 In-Context

30 e eis que dois cegos, sentados junto do caminho, ouvindo que Jesus passava, clamaram, dizendo: Senhor, Filho de Davi, tem compaixão de nós.

31 E a multidão os repreendeu, para que se calassem; eles, porém, clamaram ainda mais alto, dizendo: Senhor, Filho de Davi, tem compaixão de nós.

32 E Jesus, parando, chamou-os e perguntou: Que quereis que vos faça?

33 Disseram-lhe eles: Senhor, que se nos abram os olhos.

34 E Jesus, movido de compaixão, tocou-lhes os olhos, e imediatamente recuperaram a vista, e o seguiram.
