John 9:35

Finding him (eurwn auton). Second aorist active participle of euriskw, after search because of what he had heard (hkousen).

Dost thou believe on the Son of God? (Su pisteueiv eiv ton uion tou qeou). So A L Theta and most versions, but Aleph B D W Syr-sin read tou anqrwpou (the Son of Man), almost certainly correct. In either case it is a distinct Messianic claim quite beyond the range of this man's limited knowledge, keen as he is.
