SEV Biblia, Chapter 18:37

Y le dijeron que pasaba Jesus Nazareno.

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 37. And they told him, that Jesus of Nazareth passeth by .] Some of the company answered him, that Jesus, the prophet of Nazareth, so much talked of, and said to be the Messiah, who was become so famous for his doctrines and miracles, for healing diseases, and dispossessing devils, was just �then� passing by; and this occasioned the noise and clamour.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 35-43 - This poor blind man sat by the wayside, begging. He was not only blind but poor, the fitter emblem of the world of mankind which Christ cam to heal and save. The prayer of faith, guided by Christ's encouragin promises, and grounded on them, shall not be in vain. The grace of Christ ought to be thankfully acknowledged, to the glory of God. It is for the glory of God if we follow Jesus, as those will do whose eye are opened. We must praise God for his mercies to others, as well a for mercies to ourselves. Would we rightly understand these things, we must come to Christ, like the blind man, earnestly beseeching him to open our eyes, and to show us clearly the excellence of his precepts and the value of his salvation __________________________________________________________________

Robertson's NT Word Studies

18:37 {Passeth by} (parercetai). Present middle indicative retained in indirect discourse as paragei is in #Mt 20:30. No reason for differences of English tenses in the two passages (was passing by, passeth by).
