684 B

This begins the account of Jesus healing two blind men.

As Jesus passed by from there

Jesus was leaving the region.

passed by

It is not clear whether Jesus was moving uphill or downhill. Use a general term for going.

Son of David

Jesus was not David's literal son, so this may be translated as "Descendant of David" (UDB). However, "Son of David" is also a title given to the Messiah (see Matthew 21:9), and the men were probably calling Jesus by this title.

When Jesus had come into the house

This could be either Jesus' own house (UDB) or the house in Matthew 9:10.

Yes, Lord

"Yes, Lord, we believe you can heal us."
