“And Jesus stood still, and called them, and said, What will ye that I shall do unto you?”
King James Version (KJV)
20:30 Behold two blind men cried out - St. Mark and St. Luke mention only one of them, blind Bartimeus. He was far the more eminent of the two, and, as it seems, spoke for both.
20:31 The multitude charged them to hold their peace - And so they will all who begin to cry after the Son of David. But let those who feel their need of him cry the more; otherwise they will come short of a cure.
Mt 20:32 Jesus stood still. He does not object now to this title. Compare Mt 9:27. He is now about to proclaim himself the Messiah.
