Jump to Previous Ears Eyes Fail Hear Hearing Memory RememberJump to Next Ears Eyes Fail Hear Hearing Memory RememberMark 8 1. Jesus feeds the people miraculously;10. refuses to give a sign to the Pharisees; 14. admonishes his disciples to beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and Herod; 22. gives a blind man his sight; 27. acknowledges that he is the Jesus who should suffer and rise again; 34. and exhorts to patience in persecution for the profession of the gospel. Having eyes, do you not see? This phrase challenges the disciples' spiritual perception. The Greek word for "eyes" is "ophthalmos," which refers to physical sight but is used metaphorically here to denote spiritual insight. Jesus is addressing the disciples' inability to perceive the deeper truths of His teachings and miracles. Historically, the Jewish people were familiar with the concept of spiritual blindness, as seen in the prophetic writings of Isaiah (Isaiah 6:9-10). This blindness is not due to a lack of evidence but a failure to understand and internalize the spiritual realities presented by Jesus. And having ears, do you not hear? And do you not remember?
