Mark 731-37 Then Jesus left the vicinity of
Tyre and went through Sidon, down to the Sea of
Galilee and into the region of the Decapolis.
There some people brought to him a man who was
deaf and could hardly talk, and they begged him
to place his hand on the man. After he took him
aside,
4
away from the crowd, Jesus put his fingers
into the mans ears. Then he spit and touched the
mans tongue. He looked up to heaven and with a
deep sigh said to him, Ephphatha! (which means,
Be opened!). At this, the mans ears were
opened, his tongue was loosened and he began to
speak plainly. Jesus commanded
5
them not to tell anyone. But the more he did
so, the more they kept talking about it. People
were overwhelmed with amazement. He has done
everything well, they said. He even makes the
deaf hear and the mute speak.

For this peoples heart has become calloused
they hardly hear with their ears, and they have
closed their eyes. Otherwise they might see with
their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with
their hearts and turn, and I would heal them.
