9:15. Again therefore the Pharisees asked him how he had received his
sight. But he said to them: He put clay upon my eyes: and I washed: and
I see.
9:16. Some therefore of the Pharisees said: This man is not of God, who
keepeth not the sabbath. But others said: How can a man that is a sinner
do such miracles? And there was a division among them.
9:17. They say therefore to the blind man again: What sayest thou of him
that hath opened thy eyes? And he said: He is a prophet.
9:18. The Jews then did not believe concerning him, that he had been
blind and had received his sight, until they called the parents of him
that had received his sight,
9:19. And asked them, saying: Is this your son, who you say was born
blind? How then doth he now see?
9:20. His parents answered them and said: We know that this is our son
and that he was born blind:
9:21. But how he now seeth, we know not: or who hath opened his eyes, we
know not. Ask himself: he is of age: Let him speak for himself.
9:22. These things his parents said, because they feared the Jews: for
the Jews had already agreed among themselves that if any man should
confess him to be Christ, he should be put out of the synagogue.
9:23. Therefore did his parents say: He is of age. Ask himself.
9:24. They therefore called the man again that had been blind and said
to him: Give glory to God. We know that this man is a sinner.
9:25. He said therefore to them: If he be a sinner, I know not. One
thing I know, that whereas I was blind now I see.
9:26. They said then to him: What did he to thee? How did he open thy
eyes?
9:27. He answered them: I have told you already, and you have heard. Why
would you hear it again? Will you also become his disciples?
9:28. They reviled him therefore and said: Be thou his disciple; but we
are the disciples of Moses.
9:29. We know that God spoke to Moses: but as to this man, we know not
from whence he is.
9:30. The man answered and said to them: why, herein is a wonderful
thing, that you know not from whence he is, and he hath opened my eyes.
9:31. Now we know that God doth not hear sinners: but if a man be a
server of God and doth his, will, him he heareth.
9:32. From the beginning of the world it hath not been heard, that any
man hath opened the eyes of one born blind.
9:33. Unless this man were of God, he could not do anything.
9:34. They answered and said to him: Thou wast wholly born in sins; and
dost thou teach us? And they cast him out.
9:35. Jesus heard that they had cast him out. And when he had found him,
he said to him: Dost thou believe in the Son of God?
9:36. He answered, and said: Who is he, Lord, that I may believe in him?
9:37. And Jesus said to him: Thou hast both seen him; and it is he that
talketh with thee.
9:38. And he said: I believe, Lord. And falling down, he adored him.
9:39. And Jesus said: For judgment I am come into this world: that they
who see not may see; and they who see may become blind.
I am come, etc... Not that Christ came for that end, that any one should
be made blind: but that the Jews, by the abuse of his coming, and by
their not receiving him, brought upon themselves this judgment of
blindness.
