Mark 10:46-52 Are we spiritually blind?

  • サマリー

    Bartimaeus was blind and so had to resort to begging to feed himself. As a beggar he had to compete with other beggars in order to survive. His life was undoubtedly harsh. We do not know if he had any support from his family.

    Probably, he learned to be pushy to get what he needed. We can see his assertiveness in the Gospel reading. He is not going to be stopped by a bunch of people who didn’t like him, yelling and creating a scene.

    Today’s healing addresses physical blindness. Metaphorically today’s healing also speaks to us about spiritual blindness. We can see it in the Pharisees. They were spiritually blind; unable to recognize the Messiah even as He stood before them in their midst. Often truth is too anxiety evoking so the person unconsciously chooses not to deal with it. Have you ever had the experience of getting an insight into a situation and realizing the answer was in front of you all the time?
