Open this scene in the reader →29And as they were going out from Jericho, a large crowd followed him.
30And behold, two blind men sitting by the road, when they heard that Jesus was passing by, cried out, saying, “Lord, have mercy on us, Son of David.”
31But the crowd rebuked them, telling them to be silent. Yet they cried out all the more, saying, “Lord, have mercy on us, Son of David.”
