Contextual Overview

⁴⁶ And they come to Jericho. And as he went out of Jericho with his disciples and a great multitude, blind Bartimeus, the son of Timeus, sat by the way-side begging. ⁴⁷ And when he heard, It is Jesus of Nazareth, he cried out and said, Jesus, thou Son of David, have mercy on me. ⁴⁸ And many charged him to hold his peace; but he cried so much the more a great deal, Thou Son of David, have mercy on me. ⁴⁹ And Jesus standing still, commanded him to be called. And they call the blind man, saying to him, Take courage; rise; he calleth thee. ⁵⁰ And casting away his garment, he rose and came to Jesus. ⁵¹ And Jesus answering said to him, What wilt thou that I should do for thee? The blind man said to him, Lord, that I may receive my sight. ⁵² And Jesus said, Go; thy faith hath saved thee. And immediately he received his sight, and followed him in the way.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And Jesus answered and said unto him,.... Being come to him, and standing before him:

what wilt thou that I should do unto thee? What means this vehement cry? what is it thou designest by mercy? is it money thou askest for, to relieve thy wants? or is it that thy sight may be restored?

The blind man said unto him, Lord; "Rabboni", or, as the Syriac version reads it; "Rabbi"; thou, great master in Israel, and Lord, of the whole world, my request to thee, and which thou, art, able to effect; is,

that I might receive my sight; :-.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

See this passage explained in the notes at Matthew 20:29-34.

Mark 10:46

Blind Bartimeus - Matthew says there were two. Mark mentions but one, though he does not deny that there was another. He mentions this man because he was well known - Bartimeus, the “blind man.”

Mark 10:50

Casting away his garment - That is, his outer garment - the one that was thrown loosely over him. See the notes at Matthew 5:40. He threw it off, full of joy at the prospect of being healed, and that he might run without impediment to Jesus. This may be used to illustrate - though it had no such original reference - the manner in which a sinner should come to Jesus. He should throw away the garments of his own righteousness - he should rise speedily - should run with joy - should have full faith in the power of Jesus, and cast himself entirely upon his mercy.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Mark 10:51. Lord, that I might, &c.] The Codex Bezae, and some copies of the Itala, have, Κυριε ῥαββει, O Lord, my teacher.
