Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Bible Commentary

40. commanded, &c.-Mark (Mr 10:49) has this interesting addition: "And they call the blind man, saying unto him, Be of good comfort, rise, He calleth thee"-just as one earnestly desiring an interview with some exalted person, but told by one official after another that it is vain to wait, as he will not succeed (they know it), yet persists in waiting for some answer to his suit, and at length the door opens, and a servant appears, saying, "You will be admitted-he has called you." And are there no other suitors to Jesus who sometimes fare thus? "And he, casting away his garment"-how lively is this touch, evidently of an eye-witness, expressive of his earnestness and joy-"came to Jesus" (Mr 10:49, 50).
