Read Mark 10.46-52
Pentecost +22B
As believers in Jesus, we love this story. It is such a lovely warm story that shows the loving care of Jesus toward a man in desperate need. Here’s an interesting fact. This is the only person healed by Jesus recorded in the gospels of Matthew, Mark and Luke, who is actually named — Bartimaeus. It’s as though by the time Mark wrote this gospel, this man had become one of the well-known members of the early church. Maybe Bartimaeus never got tired of telling his story, and he never forgot that day when he first saw Jesus. And so here we have this true story of Bartimaeus, a person who responded well to the fact that Jesus was passing by.
