<p>18:42 <i>And Jesus said to him: Receive your sight; your faith has made you whole</i>- The Greek term for &quot;receive your sight&quot; is literally 'look up', and is the word used for how the Lord had a habit of praying to God with open, uplifted eyes. There is surely the hint that the gift of sight was to encourage the man in his relationship with God, and likewise &quot;whole&quot; suggests that the man as a person was now &quot;whole&quot;. The miracle was a gift of spiritual things as well as literal sight; which is why the man now follows the Lord (:43). The 'gift of heavenly health' is by grace; the Lord is eager to act directly upon willing hearts to give us the spiritual energy to follow Him.</p>
