The Travel Narrative: Humanity's Blindness
Notes taken by Edward Tanguay on August 5, 2017 (go to class or lectures)
Choose from these words to fill the blanks below:
both, God, love, infer, himself, ascent, resurrection, others, theological, Timaeus, effort, tutored, faith, Jericho, supernatural, blind, white, mountain, important, glory, John, physical, nobody, grace, David, Joseph, negative, awkward
the travel narrative
opens the error of Peter in Mark, chapter 8
closes with James and
the three most disciples
Jesus takes these three up the where he is dramatically transfigured
his clothes become so dazzlingly that he could hardly be beheld
if these three most important disciples misunderstood Jesus, we can safely that the others did as well
last episode of the travel narrative
the second act of healing of a man
humanity as a whole is blind as to the identity of Jesus
just as it took a act of grace to restore sight to the physically blind
so a similar act of will be required to inform the disciples of who Jesus is, and who they are in light of their decision to follow in his path
different than the first
Mark 10:46-52
And they came to . And as He went out of Jericho with His disciples and a great number of people, blind Bartimaeus, the son of Timaeus, sat by the wayside begging. And when he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to cry out and say, "Jesus, Thou Son of David, have mercy on me!"
Jesus stopped and said, "Call him." So they called to the blind man, "Cheer up! On your feet! He's calling you." Throwing his cloak aside, he jumped to his feet and came to Jesus. "What do you want me to do for you?" Jesus asked him. The blind man said, "Rabbi, I want to see." "Go," said Jesus, "your has healed you." Immediately he received his sight and followed Jesus along the road. And many charged him that he should hold his peace; but he cried out all the more, "Thou Son of David, have mercy on me!"
analysis
in the first story, was named
in the second story, are identified
Bartimaeus, the son of
Jesus is named, including his title, Thou Son of
the major theme is the question Jesus put to Peter: who do you say I am?
response
blind man jumps to his feet, and followed Jesus
Jesus is now on his , from Jericho, one of the lowest places on earth, to the city of Jerusalem, several thousands meters up
by embarking on the road with Jesus, Bartimaeus shows himself ready to be as to the deeper meaning of what it means to be a follower of Jesus
it's not just about one grace one receives, e.g. sight
but embarking on the service of
none of these details would have been appropriate in the first healing story
at that point, everyone is ignorant as to who Jesus is and he hasn't begun to instruct the audience about
even in the first healing story, the way he heals has an dimension to it
takes place in two stages
as if it required more on the part of Jesus
travel narrative and story
chosenness means to be a service to others
the goal is suffering for the of others
only over the course of the 14 chapters of Genesis does Joseph realize that his chosenness is for the purpose of serving his family, and the world around him
who is Jesus and who is the church
the concern wasn't to correct the disciplines to reveal his identity, but to teach them about their identity
the disciples had the same purpose
to act not for their own , but to serve out of love for others
paints a picture of the disciples
conveys a theme that will taught clearly in Paul's letters
we are saved by grace not by works
the notion of what it is to be served by is counter-intuitive
one can never understand it
only in the wake of the and the Pentecost
