Luke 18:35 Douay-Rheims

Now it came to pass, when he drew nigh to Jericho, that a certain blind man sat by the way side, begging.

Ambrose of Milan

A.D. 339–397 Patristic

In the blind man we have a type of the Gentile people, who have received by the Sacrament of our Lord the brightness of the light which they had lost. And it matters not whether the cure is conveyed in the case of one or two blind men, inasmuch as deriving their origin from Ham and Japhet, the sons of Noah, in the two blind men they put forward two authors of their race.
