48 Many angrily told him to leave off shouting; but he only cried out all the louder, "Son of David, have pity on me."

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).

Mark 10:48 In-Context

46 They came to Jericho; and as He was leaving that town--Himself and His disciples and a great crowd--Bartimaeus (the son of Timaeus), a blind beggar, was sitting by the way-side.

47 Hearing that it was Jesus the Nazarene, he began to cry out, "Son of David, Jesus, have pity on me."

48 Many angrily told him to leave off shouting; but he only cried out all the louder, "Son of David, have pity on me."

49 Then Jesus stood still. "Call him," He said. So they called the blind man. "Cheer up," they said; "rise, he is calling you."

50 The man flung away his outer garment, sprang to his feet, and came to Jesus.
