Why in Matthew does Jesus heal in front of huge crowds, but in Mark’s account He often does it in private? And why does He use spit to heal a man? Was there a cultural or historical reason, and what does it reveal about His compassion?
In episode #70 of Jesus Said That, “Spit, Signs, and Perfect Healing: Jesus’ Heart for The Hurting,” we will look into Matthew 15:29–31 and Mark 7:31–37 to uncover these questions. You’ll see why Jesus met people differently, how history explains His unusual methods, and what it all teaches us about His heart for the hurting.
