Revised newspaper article #2 - Mark 10: 46 - 52
Beggar gets special treatment and regains
vision.
A blind beggar named Bartimaeus regained vision on March 12.
One day, a man
names Jesus and his fellow disciples were leaving Jericho to go to Jerusalem.
Not a lot of people know his objective but one of the disciples, Judas said
“We’re going to Jerusalem because Jesus is getting crucified”
When Jesus and
his disciples was on the way to leave Jericho, a large crowd followed him and
the beggar Bartimaeus realized that Jesus of Nazareth has come. “I was in that
crowd and I know Bartimaeus very well, he’s my good friend, he was screaming
for some reason, the crowd told him to be quiet, but he screamed louder,
calling for Jesus.”
Then Jesus told
his disciples to take Bartimaeus near him. “I’m not sure if I was hallucinating
or not, but I heard and saw Jesus say, “What do you want” and the beggar
replied “I want to see again” and Jesus just closes his eyes with his hands and
said, “then see” and the beggar wasn’t blind anymore!” said one of the people
in the crowd.
“After healing Bartimaeus,
Jesus told him that his faith has done him well, Jesus is really truly
amazing.” Said Bartimaeus good friend.
Then Jesus left
and the crowd congratulated Bartimaeus. People say now Bartimaeus is not blind
anymore he can work again.
