John 9:6 - John Wesley's Notes

John 9:6

4 ^aI must work the works of Him who sent Me while it is ^bday; the night is coming when no one can work.

5 As long as I am in the world, ^aI am the light of the world.”

6 When He had said these things, ^aHe spat on the ground and made clay with the saliva; and He anointed the eyes of the blind man with the clay.

7 And He said to him, “Go, wash ^ain the pool of Siloam” (which is translated, Sent). So ^bhe went and washed, and came back seeing.

8 Therefore the neighbors and those who previously had seen that he was¹ blind said, “Is not this he who sat and begged?”

9 Some said, “This is he.” Others said,¹ “He is like him.” He said, “I am he.”

John 9:6

He anointed the eyes of the blind man with the clay - This might almost have blinded a man that had sight. But what could it do toward curing the blind? It reminds us that God is no farther from the event, when he works either with, or without means, and that all the creatures are only that which his almighty operation makes them.
