Text -- Mark 10:51-52 (NET)

10:51 Then Jesus said to him, “What do you want me to do for you?” The blind man replied, “Rabbi, let me see again.” 10:52 Jesus said to him, “Go, your faith has healed you.” Immediately he regained his sight and followed him on the road.

Commentary -- Verse Notes / Footnotes

NET Notes: Mar 10:51

¹ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the narrative.

² tn Grk “And answering, Jesus said to him.” The participle ἀποκριθείς is redundant and has not been translated.

³ tn Or “Master”; Grk ῥαββουνί (rabbouni).

⁴ tn Grk “that I may see [again].” The phrase can be rendered as an imperative of request, “Please, give me sight.” Since the man is not noted as having been blind from birth (as the man in John 9 was) it is likely the request is to receive back the sight he once had.

NET Notes: Mar 10:52

¹ tn Or “received” (see the note on the phrase “let me see again” in v. 51).
