In biblical context, "ears to hear" implies the ability to understand and accept spiritual truths. Jesus often used this phrase to emphasize the importance of truly listening and comprehending His teachings (<a href="/matthew/11-15.htm">Matthew 11:15</a>, <a href="/revelation/2-7.htm">Revelation 2:7</a>). It suggests that not everyone will be receptive to His message, highlighting the distinction between those who are spiritually open and those who are not. The phrase also connects to the prophetic tradition in <a href="/isaiah/6-9.htm">Isaiah 6:9-10</a>, where the prophet speaks of people who hear but do not understand, indicating a spiritual dullness or resistance.<p><b>let him hear.”</b><br>This is an imperative command, urging the listener to actively engage with the message being presented. In the cultural and historical context of Jesus' time, hearing was not just about auditory reception but involved obedience and response. The call to "hear" is a call to action, to internalize and live out the teachings of Christ. This phrase is a recurring motif in Jesus' parables, where He challenges His audience to go beyond superficial listening to a deeper, transformative understanding (<a href="/mark/4-9.htm">Mark 4:9</a>, <a href="/luke/8-8.htm">Luke 8:8</a>). It underscores the necessity of a willing heart to receive divine truth, a theme that resonates throughout Scripture, emphasizing the importance of faith and obedience in the life of a believer.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/j/jesus_christ.htm">Jesus Christ</a></b><br>The central figure in this passage, Jesus is teaching the crowd and His disciples about the importance of inner purity over external rituals.<br><br>2. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_crowd.htm">The Crowd</a></b><br>The audience to whom Jesus is speaking, consisting of people who have gathered to hear His teachings.<br><br>3. <b><a href="/topical/p/pharisees_and_scribes.htm">Pharisees and Scribes</a></b><br>Religious leaders who are often in opposition to Jesus, emphasizing external adherence to the law.<br><br>4. <b><a href="/topical/d/disciples.htm">Disciples</a></b><br>Followers of Jesus who are learning from His teachings and are present during this discourse.<br><br>5. <b><a href="/topical/g/gennesaret.htm">Gennesaret</a></b><br>The region where Jesus and His disciples are located during this teaching, as mentioned earlier in <a href="/mark/6-53.htm">Mark 6:53</a>.<div class="vheading2">Teaching Points</div><b><a href="/topical/s/spiritual_discernment.htm">Spiritual Discernment</a></b><br>Jesus emphasizes the need for spiritual ears, urging His listeners to seek understanding beyond the surface.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/i/inner_purity_vs._external_rituals.htm">Inner Purity vs. External Rituals</a></b><br>The context of this verse highlights the importance of internal transformation over mere adherence to religious customs.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/a/active_listening.htm">Active Listening</a></b><br>True hearing involves an active engagement with Jesus' teachings, leading to transformation and obedience.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/d/divine_enablement.htm">Divine Enablement</a></b><br>Recognize that the ability to truly hear and understand spiritual truths is a gift from God, requiring humility and openness.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/r/responsibility_to_respond.htm">Responsibility to Respond</a></b><br>With the ability to hear comes the responsibility to act on what is heard, aligning one's life with the teachings of Christ.<div class="vheading2">Lists and Questions</div><a href="/top10/lessons_from_mark_7.htm">Top 10 Lessons from Mark 7</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/should_you_separate_yourself_from_them.htm">What miracles did Jesus perform according to the Bible?</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/why_did_jesus_use_spit_in_healing.htm">Why did Jesus use spit in healing?</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/why_does_mark_2_5-7_attribute_god's_authority_to_jesus.htm">Mark 2:5-7 - If only God can forgive sins, why does this passage seem to attribute God's authority to Jesus without clearer proof of His divinity?</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/how_reconcile_1_sam_16_7,_16_12_on_looks.htm">How do we reconcile 1 Samuel 16:7's emphasis on God looking at the heart with David's 'handsome' description in 16:12, suggesting external attributes mattered?</a><a name="commentary" id="commentary"></a><div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/ellicott/mark/7.htm">Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers</a></div>(16) <span class= "bld">If any man have ears to hear.</span>--It was with this formula that our Lord had closed some at least of His parables (<a href="/mark/4-9.htm" title="And he said to them, He that has ears to hear, let him hear.">Mark 4:9</a>, <a href="/matthew/13-10.htm" title="And the disciples came, and said to him, Why speak you to them in parables?">Matthew 13:10</a>). And it was probably this that led to the form which the inquiry of the disciples took when they came to ask their Master "concerning the parable."
