Matthew 9:27-38
There are four lessons in this passage which deserve close attention. Let us mark them each in succession.
Let us mark, in the first place, that strong faith in Christ may sometimes be found where it might least have been expected.
Who would have thought that two blind men would have called our Lord the “Son of David”? They could not, of course, have seen the miracles that He did: they could only know Him by common report. But the eyes of their understanding were enlightened, if their bodily eyes were dark; they saw the truth which scribes and Pharisees could not see; they saw that Jesus of Nazareth was the Messiah. They believed that He was able to heal them.
