23 Therefore his parents said, “He is of age; ask him.”
24 So they again called the man who was blind, and said to him, a“Give God the glory! bWe know that this Man is a sinner.”
25 He answered and said, “Whether He is a sinner or not I do not know. One thing I know: that though I was blind, now I see.”
26 Then they said to him again, “What did He do to you? How did He open your eyes?”
27 He answered them, “I told you already, and you did not listen. Why do you want to hear it again? Do you also want to become His disciples?”
28 Then they reviled him and said, “You are His disciple, but we are Moses’ disciples.
29 We know that God aspoke to bMoses; as for this fellow, cwe do not know where He is from.”
30 The man answered and said to them, a“Why, this is a marvelous thing, that you do not know where He is from; yet He has opened my eyes!
31 Now we know that aGod does not hear sinners; but if anyone is a worshiper of God and does His will, He hears him.
32 Since the world began it has been unheard of that anyone opened the eyes of one who was born blind.
33 aIf this Man were not from God, He could do nothing.”
34 They answered and said to him, a“You were completely born in sins, and are you teaching us?” And they1 cast him out.
True Vision and True Blindness
35 Jesus heard that they had cast him out; and when He had afound him, He said to him, “Do you bbelieve in cthe Son of God?”
36 He answered and said, “Who is He, Lord, that I may believe in Him?”
38 Then he said, “Lord, I believe!” And he aworshiped Him.
39 And Jesus said, a“For judgment I have come into this world, bthat those who do not see may see, and that those who see may be made blind.”
40 Then some of the Pharisees who were with Him heard these words, aand said to Him, “Are we blind also?”
