어린이를 위한 설명

Imagine you're playing a game where you have to ask your friend for a toy, but everyone tells you not to bother them. You keep asking because you really want that toy and believe your friend will share it if you just keep trying. That's what this blind man did with Jesus; he kept asking even when others said stop.

역사적 배경

The Gospel of Mark was written by John Mark, a disciple who likely interviewed Peter for details about Jesus' life. This event is set in the context of first-century Palestine where beggars often sat by roads hoping for alms from passersby. The crowd's reaction shows how unusual Bartimaeus’s persistence was.
