Mark 10:48 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 10:48

And many charged him that he should hold his peace
And be silent, and not call him the son of David, at least; nor ask any thing of him:

but he cried the more a great deal:
he lifted up his voice more loudly, and repeated the same words quicker and oftener, and with greater vehemency and importunity:

thou son of David, have mercy on me; (See Gill on Matthew 20:31).

46 They spent some time in Jericho. As Jesus was leaving town, trailed by his disciples and a parade of people, a blind beggar by the name of Bartimaeus, son of Timaeus, was sitting alongside the road.

47 When he heard that Jesus the Nazarene was passing by, he began to cry out, "Son of David, Jesus! Mercy, have mercy on me!"

48 Many tried to hush him up, but he yelled all the louder, "Son of David! Mercy, have mercy on me!"

49 Jesus stopped in his tracks. "Call him over."

50 Throwing off his coat, he was on his feet at once and came to Jesus.
