Bartimaeus is an image for all of us born into this world ignorant of the truth about God and ourselves and needing the light of revelation to make known to us God's plan for our lives. The readings for the 30th Sunday use the images of blindness and exile to illustrate our spiritual state apart from God. But Jesus our high priest has pity on our ignorance and error and gives us sight! In this episode, Father Ryan exhorts us to come to Jesus like Bartimaeus, to have our sight restored.
