And when he was come into the house,....

Matthew Henry
We have in this chapter remarkable instances of the power and pity of the Lord Jesus, sufficient to convince us that he is both able to save to the uttermost all that come to God by him, and as willing as he is able.

And when he was come into the house, the blind men came to him: and Jesus saith unto them, Believe ye that I am able to do this? It is a great thing to have faith about the particular point that most concerns us: “Believe ye that I am able to do this?” Some can believe everything except the one thing for which faith is most needed, Mat_9:28.

And when Jesus departed thence, two blind men followed him, crying, and saying, thou son of David, have mercy on us. And when he was come into the house, I suppose the house at Capernaum, where he was wont to stay.
Charles H. Spurgeon
The blind men came to him; Forced their way in. They must be attended to. Hunger breaks through stone walls, they say, and an earnest heart will follow after what it seeks.

And Jesus saith unto them, Believe ye that I am able to do this? They said unto him, Yea, Lord. Then touched he their eyes, saying, According to your faith, be it unto you. That is, “If you do not believe, you shall not see, but if there be faith in you, behold you shall have sight.”
