Ephphatha!

Jesus sighed and then commanded, "Ephphatha" that is, Be Opened! (Mark 7:34).

The result? The deaf recipient heard clearly and spoke distinctly (Mark 7:35). By verse 37 the people were, "Amazed beyond measure, they kept on saying, 'He does everything well! He even makes deaf people hear and mute people talk!'" May the Lord bless this collaboration of writers and readers of this journal.

Ephphatha is an Academic E-Journal of Orthodox Christianity promoting; Lordship and Scholarship; The Mandate before The Mission; and Alignment preceding Assignment.
