# Transhumanist Advent: He maketh the deaf to hear

Explore how Christ’s miraculous healing of the deaf connects to modern technology, revealing how restoring hearing through innovation emulates the compassionate works of Jesus.

“And they bring unto him one that was deaf, and had an impediment in his speech; and they beseech him to put his hand upon him. And he took him aside from the multitude, and put his fingers into his ears, and he spit, and touched his tongue; And looking up to heaven, he sighed, and saith unto him, Ephphatha, that is, Be opened. And straightway his ears were opened, and the string of his tongue was loosed, and he spake plain... And [they] were beyond measure astonished, saying, He hath done all things well: he maketh both the deaf to hear, and the dumb to speak.” (Mark 7:31-35, 37)
