What does the Bible say about the deaf hearing?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible teaches that Jesus opened the ears of the deaf, symbolizing the spiritual awakening of God's people who were once unable to hear His truth.

In Mark 7:31-37, we see Jesus perform the miracle of healing a deaf man, which illustrates the broader spiritual reality of how all of God's people were deaf to His truth before their salvation. Just as Jesus opened the man's ears physically, He opens the ears of His elect spiritually, enabling them to hear the gospel and understand His word. This miracle signifies that salvation is a work of God’s grace, where He chooses to reveal Himself to those who cannot see or hear.
