Mark 7:31-37 And again, departing from the coasts of Tyre and Sidon, he came to the sea of Galilee, through the middle of the coasts of Decapolis.… I. IN VIEW OF THE GREAT MISERY IN WHICH MAN FINDS HIMSELF WITHOUT CHRIST (verse 32). Miserable condition of the dumb and deaf man. II. IN VIEW OF THE GREAT BLESSEDNESS INTO WHICH HE ENTERS THROUGH THE LORD. Especially since we thereby enter upon the greatest happiness of earth (verse 33). The treatment of this deaf man is apt illustration of how Jesus treats those who are led to Him by friend or acquaintance. (Dr. Arndt.)
