SEV Biblia, Chapter 18:38
Entonces dio voces, diciendo: Jesus, Hijo de David, ten misericordia de mí.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 38. And he cried, saying, Jesus thou son of David , etc.] Believing him, at once, to be the Messiah; whence he calls him the son of David, which was a character and title of the Messiah, well known to the Jews; (see Gill on “ Matthew 1:1”) and therefore immediately called out unto him, being willing to take that opportunity as he passed, and whilst he was within hearing, to make his suit to him for his sight: saying, have mercy on me : a poor, blind, and miserable creature, and restore me to my sight, which will be an act of singular mercy, and goodness, and will always be gratefully owned as such.
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 __________________________________________________________________

18:38 {He cried} (eboesen). Old verb, boaw, to shout, as in #9:38. {Son of David} (huie daueid). Shows that he recognizes Jesus as the Messiah.
