Luke 18:42

42 Jesus told him, "Receive your sight! Your faith has made you well."

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

40 Jesus stopped and ordered them to bring the man to him. When the man came near, Jesus asked him,
41 "What do you want me to do for you?" The blind man said, "Lord, I want to see again."
42 Jesus told him, "Receive your sight! Your faith has made you well."
43 Immediately, he could see again. He followed Jesus and praised God. All the people saw this, and they, too, praised God.
