Luke 18:35-43
As he was come nigh to Jericho. This was on his last journey to
Jerusalem, a little more than a week before the crucifixion. Matthew
and Mark also give accounts of the healing of the blind beggar. See
notes on Matthew 20:29-34. Compare Mr 10:46-52. Matthew says there
were two blind beggars. "If there were two there certainly was one".
Luke and Mark only name the one who was most active and earnest. Mark
says his name was Bartimaeus (Mark 10:46). For a description of
Jericho, see note on Matthew 20:29.
