We discussed:
- Why many Matthew narratives have a transition sentence between pericopes
- The concept of the 'messianic secret' and why Jesus felt he had to hide his ministry during his lifetime
- the concept of blindness in the Torah (Leviticus 19:14), the many rabbis who were blind and 'sagi nahor'
- Why this narrative lacks a Gospel parallel, yet a similar story appears in Mat. 20"19-34, Mark 10:46-52 and Luke 18:35-43
- The idea of summarizing the NT in one story
