Description
Welcome to Bible Bytes, where we work to inspire faith one byte at a time.
Scripture: Mark 7: 31-37 (NASB)
Again He left the region of Tyre and came through Sidon to the Sea of Galilee, within the region of Decapolis. And they brought to Him one who was deaf and had difficulty speaking, and they begged Him to lay His hand on him. And Jesus took him aside from the crowd, by himself, and put His fingers in his ears, and after spitting, He touched his tongue with the saliva; and looking up to heaven with a deep sigh, He said to him, 'Ephphatha!' that is, 'Be opened!' And his ears were opened, and the impediment of his tongue was removed, and he began speaking plainly. And He gave them orders not to tell anyone; but the more He ordered them, the more widely they continued to proclaim it. And they were utterly astonished, saying, 'He has done all things well; He makes even those who are deaf hear, and those who are unable to talk, speak.
