Hello you,
This is a verse by verse lesson on Mark 7:31-38, this will be going through the journey with Jesus and his disciples leaving Tyre and Sidon and passing through Decapolis, which they had been through in (which we go back and look in this lesson) Mark chapter 5. They are traveling to the Sea of Galilee, and there is a group of people bringing forth a man who is deaf and has a stammering speech.
Hopefully it is helpful to you and if you have any comments or insights you would like to share please feel free so. Just trying to do best to teach the scripture by worshiping God in spirit and truth.
Thank you for your consideration,
Matthew G.
“Again, departing from the region of Tyre and Sidon, He came through the midst of the region of Decapolis to the Sea of Galilee. Then they brought to Him one who was deaf and had an impediment in his speech, and they begged Him to put His hand on him. And He took him aside from the multitude, and put His fingers in his ears, and He spat and touched his tongue. Then, looking up to heaven, He sighed, and said to him, “Ephphatha,” that is, “Be opened.” Immediately his ears were opened, and the impediment of his tongue was loosed, and he spoke plainly. Then He commanded them that they should tell no one; but the more He commanded them, the more widely they proclaimed it. And they were astonished beyond measure, saying, “He has done all things well. He makes both the deaf to hear and the mute to speak.””
Mark 7:31-37 NKJV
