Healing the Blind Man near Jericho

Luke 18:35-43 As Jesus approached Jericho, a blind man was sitting by the roadside begging. He heard the crowd going by and asked what was happening. When told that Jesus of Nazareth was passing by, he called out, “Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!”

Jesus' compassion shines through in this miracle. Though others rebuked the man, Jesus took the time to stop, ask what he needed, and heal him. His physical healing was a sign of a deeper spiritual restoration that Jesus offers to all who trust in Him.
