Need to know
What do Bartimaeus, Mary Magdelene, Joanna, Susanna and Lazarus have in common? Give up?
Out of the 39 specific people and various multitudes Jesus healed in the New Testament, these five people are the only ones whose names are recorded.
What were their ailments? Bartimaeus was blind. Mary Magdelene had seven devils. Joanna and Susanna had either evil spirits or infirmities or both. And Lazarus had the most final of all maladies. Lazarus was dead and stinketh. They were all healed. Luckies!
Whose names do I wish I knew? The guy whose ear Peter cut off when Jesus was arrested, the centurion's servant, Jairus' daughter and Peter's mother-in-law. All of them were healed, too.
