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.

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."
