Luke 18:35 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 18:35

And it came to pass that as he was come nigh unto
Jericho
Which lay in his way to Jerusalem;

a certain blind man sat by the way side begging:
this was not blind Bartimaeus, nor his companion, for they were cured by Christ as he went out of Jericho; but this man before he came to it; for we afterwards read of his entrance into, and passing through Jericho, ( Luke 19:1 ) though much the same things are related in this account, as in that of the other two blind men; (See Gill on Matthew 20:30).

33 After torturing him, they will kill him. On the third day, he will rise up."

34 But the Twelve understood none of these words. The meaning of this message was hidden from them and they didn't grasp what he was saying.

35 As Jesus came to Jericho, a certain blind man was sitting beside the road begging.

36 When the man heard the crowd passing by, he asked what was happening.

37 They told him, "Jesus the Nazarene is passing by."
