Mark 8:21-29 Amplified Bible (AMP)

21. And He kept repeating, Do you not yet understand?

22. And they came to Bethsaida. And [people] brought to Him a blind man and begged Him to touch him.

23. And He caught the blind man by the hand and led him out of the village; and when He had spit on his eyes and put His hands upon him, He asked him, Do you [possibly] see anything?

24. And he looked up and said, I see people, but [they look] like trees, walking.

25. Then He put His hands on his eyes again; and the man looked intently [that is, fixed his eyes on definite objects], and he was restored and saw everything distinctly [even what was at a distance].

26. And He sent him away to his house, telling [him], Do not [even] enter the village or tell anyone there.

27. And Jesus went on with His disciples to the villages of Caesarea Philippi; and on the way He asked His disciples, Who do people say that I am?

28. And they answered [Him], John the Baptist; and others [say], Elijah; but others, one of the prophets.

29. And He asked them, But who do you yourselves say that I am? Peter replied to Him, You are the Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed One).
