This healing story is a classical one - it is healing by Jesus in response to the faith Bartimaeus has in Jesus. It is classic not only in the sense it fits everything the healing miracles display - they are all in response to the faith of the person seeking the miracle of Jesus. It is classic in that it highlights what Jesus can and does do - open our eyes and show us the way to see life as God wants us to not sa we willfully determine.
