Rabanus Maurus, on Matt 9:27
Rabanus Maurus · c. A.D. 780–856
Matt 9:27 · Douay-Rheims
“And as Jesus passed from thence, there followed him two blind men crying out and saying, Have mercy on us, O Son of David.”
On this verse:
“The house of the ruler is the Synagogue which was ruled by Moses; the house of Jesus is the heavenly Jerusalem. As the Lord passed through this world and was returning to His own house, two blind men followed Him; that is, when the Gospel was preached by the Apostles, many of the Jews and Gentiles began to follow Him. But when He ascended into Heaven, then He entered His house, that is, into the confession of one faith which is in the Catholic Church, and in that they were enlightened.”
