Jesus Heals Two Blind Men and a Man Who Cannot Speak

Two blind men ask Jesus for mercy, and soon after he frees a man who could not speak.

Matthew 9:27–34About 2 minutes
Let’s begin

As Jesus passed by, two blind men followed him. They kept calling out for mercy and called him the Son of David. When Jesus went into the house, the two men came to him there.

What happened next

Jesus asked whether they believed he was able to do this. They answered yes. Then he touched their eyes, and their eyes were opened. Jesus gave them a strong warning not to let anyone know about it.

What happened next

But after they left, the men spread the news about Jesus through that whole land. As they went out, a man who could not speak and was demon possessed was brought to Jesus.

The end

Jesus cast out the demon, and the man spoke. The crowds were amazed and said that nothing like this had ever been seen in Israel. But the Pharisees said Jesus drove out demons by the prince of demons.
