“Do you have eyes?
Yet you do not see.
Do you have ears
And not hear?
Do you not remember?”
ὀφθαλμοὺς ἔχοντες οὐ βλέπετε, καὶ ὦτα ἔχοντες οὐκ ἀκούετε; καὶ οὐ μνημονεύετε,
This reprimand of Jesus to his disciples is unique to Mark, who returned to his favorite theme of failure to see and hear correctly. Mark said that Jesus asked them if they did not have eyes to see (ὀφθαλμοὺς ἔχοντες οὐ βλέπετε) or any ears to hear (καὶ ὦτα ἔχοντες οὐκ ἀκούετε)? Did they not remember (καὶ οὐ μνημονεύετε) what he had done and said? Jesus was upset at their lack of understanding of what was going on.
