What kind of person is the blind beggar in the gospel?
All we know about the blind beggar is told in Mark 10:46-52. We do not even know his name, since Bartimaeus is not a personal name, but means 'Son of Timaeus' in Aramaic, information that is then repeated in Greek for emphasis (and translated into English in our Bibles). Clearly Bartimaeus is only important for being the son of Timaeus, yet we are not told who his father was. In copying from Mark, the authors of Matthew and Luke did not even consider this information important: Luke simply talks of a blind beggar, while Matthew elaborates the story to have two blind beggars.Dennis R. MacDonald (The Homeric Epics and the Gospel of Mark) has identified interesting parallels between Bartimaeus in the gospels, and Tiresias in Homer's Odyssey. The name 'Timaeus' means Honour, so Bartimaeus becomes a symbolic name meaning Son of Honour; Tiresias is a symbolic name meaning Sign or Portent. Both are blind. Though blind, Bartimaeus recognised Jesus as the son of David; though blind, Tiresias recognised Odysseus as the son of Laertes. The garment both wore was called a himation; this is clear because Bartimaeus symbolicaly threw his off. These parallels would be no more than an interesting coincidence, except that the story of Bartimaeus is linked (as pair L) through the parallel structure of Mark's Gospel to another story in which MacDonald has found many parallels to Homer's Odyssey. For an educated Greek, familiar with Homer's epics, the existence of the parallels would have reinforced the mental association created by the parallel structure, a summary of which follows:A .

However, Timaeus is an unlikely name for a Jew, but is a Greek name. It is also the name of a famous Dialogue by Plato, called Timaeus, about nature and creation. This raises the possibility that Bartimaeus, the blind beggar, was not a real person, but was an allegory.By associating this story with the story of 'Legion' and its parallels to Homer's epic, then making allusions here to another story from the Odyssey, Mark would have created expectations among his readers that Bartimaeus was a special person. Seeing the name from Plato's Dialogue, some would have wondered whether Plato had been writing his Dialogue about Jesus.
Who was the son of Timaeus?
Creon is the son of Menoeceus in "Oedipus Rex" and "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Menoeceus is a Theban prince. He is the descendant, father, first cousin and son of Theban kings even though he himself never occupies the Theban throne or wears the royal crown.
