Original Title:
«Η θεραπεία του τυφλού Βαρτιμαίου και η "σημειολογία" της στον Ευαγγελιστή Μάρκο (10, 48-52)»
Translated title:
"The healing of the blind Bartimaeus and its "semiology" in the Evangelist Mark (10, 48-52)"
Summary:
This dissertation examines interpretatively the excerpt of Mark’s Gospel, concerning the miraculous healing of blinded Bartimeous (MK. 10, 46-52). The historical and literal analysis, which points out the conditions of the creation of the text, precedes the interpretative analysis, using the bibliographical overview.
Through the study, it arises that the specific excerpt serves the “Theology of Pathos”. More specifically, the miraculous healing of blind Bartimeous functions as an indication of the right apprenticeship in terms with Jesus before the Divine Suffering (Pathos), while it constitutes the introduction to this. The transition from the Son of God to the suffering Son of Human launches with the miracle, which is the main Christological subject for evangelist Mark. Moreover, the basic concept, always according to the bibliographical overview, is the disestablishment of Jesus’ secret divine nature and the declaration of His Messianism, which is accomplished not only by the miracle, but also by the silent acceptance of the title of the "Son of David" and the acceptance of Bartimeous on His course.
