God Moves

Mark 7:31-35

Then Jesus left the vicinity of Tyre and went through Sidon, down to the Sea of Galilee and into the region of the Decapolis. There some people brought to him a man who was deaf and could hardly talk, and they begged Jesus to place his hand on him. After he took him aside, away from the crowd, Jesus put his fingers into the man's ears. Then he spat and touched the man's tongue. He looked up to heaven and with a deep sigh said to him, 'Ephphatha!' (which means 'Be opened!'). At this, the man's ears were opened, his tongue was loosed and he began to speak plainly. (NIVUK)

We should not ignore geography. Jesus kept moving, because He had business to do: announcing the kingdom of heaven, and training His disciples how to do the same. After healing the child of the Gentile woman on the Mediterranean coast, He then travelled many miles to what is now Jordan and Syria, to heal a deaf-mute man. But why did Jesus travel so far for two Gentile nobodies? This was another important lesson for the trainee apostles.
