MATTHEW 12:23 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“And all the people were amazed, and said, Is not this the son of David?”
And all the people were amazed, and said: can this be the Son of David? The crowd's messianic question — can this be the Son of David? — is the question that the healing prompts. The Son of David title is the distinctively Matthean messianic designation: Matthew's Gospel alone records that the blind men of Jericho call Jesus Son of David (Matthew 20:30–31). The crowd's question is open and wondering; the Pharisees' response is closed and accusatory.
