Matthäus 9:29 Meaning and Commentary

Matthew 9:29

Then touched he their eyes
Not but that he could have restored sight to them, without touching their eyes, by a word speaking, or by the secret communication of his power; but he might do this as a sign of his favour and kindness to them, and of his will to cure them; as also in compliance with their weakness, who might expect some manual operation upon them;

saying, according to your faith be it unto you:
not that faith in his person and power, was the cause or condition of this cure, or the rule and measure according to which Christ proceeded; but the sense is, that as they had believed he was able to heal them, accordingly a cure should be effected; which, upon his so saying, they immediately found performed in them.

Matthäus 9:29 In-Context

27 Und als Jesus von dannen weiterging, folgten ihm zwei Blinde, welche schrieen und sprachen: Erbarme dich unser, Sohn Davids!
28 Als er aber in das Haus gekommen war, traten die Blinden zu ihm; und Jesus spricht zu ihnen: Glaubet ihr, daß ich dieses tun kann? Sie sagen zu ihm: Ja, Herr.
29 Dann rührte er ihre Augen an und sprach: Euch geschehe nach eurem Glauben.
30 Und ihre Augen wurden aufgetan; und Jesus bedrohte sie und sprach: Sehet zu, niemand erfahre es!
31 Sie aber gingen aus und machten ihn ruchbar in jenem ganzen Lande.
