This is the only place in the Gospel of Mark where the title "Son of David" is used.
6. When Bartimaeus cried out to Jesus, what did the crowd do?

Answer: They rebuked him and told him to be quiet.

It appears the people who were with Jesus had no time for Bartimaeus (Mark 10:48). They saw him as a blind beggar who should be ignored.
7. When Jesus heard Bartimaeus crying out, what did he say?

Answer: "Call him."

When Christ told the people to call Bartimaeus over to meet with him, there was a noted change in the crowd. Just beforehand, they had been rebuking Bartimaeus when he was calling out to Jesus. (Mark 10:48). In the next verse, they told Bartimaeus: "Cheer up! On your feet! He is calling you!" It's as if Bartimaeus had suddenly been accepted by the crowd, since Jesus wanted to meet with him.

Answer: Rabbi

This exchange is in Mark 10:51. In Hebrew, rabbi means "my teacher."
9. Also in verse 10:51, what did Bartimaeus say he wanted to do?

Answer: "Rabbi, I want to see."

Blind Bartimaeus was to the point. Mark indicates Bartimaeus didn't waste any time telling Jesus what he wanted to achieve.
10. Mark 10:52 states that "immediately", Bartimaeus gained his sight. What was the reason Jesus said Bartimaeus was healed?

Answer: His faith

One can only imagine the sheer joy Bartimaeus must have experienced after gaining his sight. I can picture him giving Jesus a gigantic bear hug and lifting him up off the ground while the admiring crowd looked on.
