John 9:13-24

¹³They brought to the Pharisees the man who was formerly blind.

¹⁴Now it was a Sabbath on the day when Jesus made the clay and opened his eyes.

¹⁵Then the Pharisees also were asking him again how he received his sight. And he said to them, “He applied clay to my eyes, and I washed, and I see.”

¹⁶Therefore some of the Pharisees were saying, “This man is not from God, because He does not keep the Sabbath ” But others were saying, “How can a man who is a sinner perform such signs?” And there was a division among them.

¹⁷So they said to the blind man again, “What do you say about Him, since He opened your eyes?” And he said, “He is a prophet.”

¹⁸The Jews then did not believe it of him, that he had been blind and had received sight, until they called the parents of the very one who had received his sight,

¹⁹and questioned them, saying, “Is this your son, who you say was born blind? Then how does he now see?”

²⁰His parents answered them and said, “We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind;

²¹but how he now sees, we do not know; or who opened his eyes, we do not know. Ask him; he is of age, he will speak for himself.”

²²His parents said this because they were afraid of the Jews; for the Jews had already agreed that if anyone confessed Him to be Christ, he was to be put out of the synagogue.

²³For this reason his parents said, “He is of age; ask him.”

²⁴So a second time they called the man who had been blind, and said to him, “Give glory to God; we know that this man is a sinner.”
