SCRIPTURE

"And their eyes were opened. And Jesus strictly charged them, saying, See that no man know it. But they went forth, and spread abroad his fame in all that land. And as they went forth, behold, there was brought to him a dumb man possessed with a demon." — Matthew 9:30-32 (ASV)

And their eyes were opened; and Jesus straitly charged them, saying, See that no man know it. But they, when they were departed, spread abroad his fame in all that country. As they went out, behold, they brought to him a dumb man possessed with a devil.

These miracles were performed so rapidly, and they concerned such different cases that, as we read of them, we rejoice to see how Christ was ready for anything, and ready for everything. It did not matter what case was brought to him, he was never taken aback.

Here he is just as fully prepared to heal the mute as just now he was to cure the blind.

And their eyes were opened; and Jesus strictly charged them, saying, See that no one knows it. But they, when they had departed, spread abroad his fame in all that country. As they went out, behold, they brought to him a dumb man possessed with a devil.

Here we have encountered the dead, those who were bleeding to death, the blind, and the dumb, and the possessed of a devil.
