SCRIPTURE

"And they come unto Bethsaida. And they bring to him a blind man, and beseech him to touch him." — Mark 8:22 (ASV)

And he cometh to Bethsaida.—This miracle also is recorded by St. Mark only. Judging by the localities named previously, Dalmanutha (Mark 8:10), the passage across the lake (Mark 8:13), and afterwards the villages of Cæsarea Philippi (Mark 8:27), it is probable that this was the Bethsaida on the northeastern shore of the Sea of Galilee.
