Mattheüs 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.

27 En als Jezus van daar voortging, zijn Hem twee blinden gevolgd, roepende en zeggende: Gij Zone Davids, ontferm U onzer!
28 En als Hij in huis gekomen was, kwamen de blinden tot Hem. En Jezus zeide tot hen: Gelooft gij, dat Ik dat doen kan? Zij zeiden tot Hem: Ja, Heere!
29 Toen raakte Hij hun ogen aan, zeggende: U geschiede naar uw geloof.
30 En hun ogen zijn geopend geworden. En Jezus heeft hun zeer gestrengelijk verboden, zeggende: Ziet, dat het niemand wete.
31 Maar zij, uitgegaan zijnde, hebben Hem ruchtbaar gemaakt door dat gehele land.
