John:9:1-20-21
rsv@John:9:1 @ As he passed by, he saw a man blind from his birth.
rsv@John:9:2 @ And his disciples asked him, "Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?"
rsv@John:9:3 @ Jesus answered, "It was not that this man sinned, or his parents, but that the works of God might be made manifest in him.
rsv@John:9:4 @ We must work the works of him who sent me, while it is day; night comes, when no one can work.
rsv@John:9:5 @ As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world."
rsv@John:9:6 @ As he said this, he spat on the ground and made clay of the spittle and anointed the man's eyes with the clay,
rsv@John:9:7 @ saying to him, "Go, wash in the pool of Silo'am" (which means Sent). So he went and washed and came back seeing.
rsv@John:9:8 @ The neighbors and those who had seen him before as a beggar, said, "Is not this the man who used to sit and beg?"
rsv@John:9:9 @ Some said, "It is he"; others said, "No, but he is like him." He said, "I am the man."
rsv@John:9:10 @ They said to him, "Then how were your eyes opened?"

rsv@John:9:12 @ They said to him, "Where is he?" He said, "I do not know."
rsv@John:9:13 @ They brought to the Pharisees the man who had formerly been blind.
rsv@John:9:14 @ Now it was a sabbath day when Jesus made the clay and opened his eyes.
rsv@John:9:15 @ The Pharisees again asked him how he had received his sight. And he said to them, "He put clay on my eyes, and I washed, and I see."
rsv@John:9:16 @ Some of the Pharisees said, "This man is not from God, for he does not keep the sabbath." But others said, "How can a man who is a sinner do such signs?" There was a division among them.
rsv@John:9:17 @ So they again said to the blind man, "What do you say about him, since he has opened your eyes?" He said, "He is a prophet."
rsv@John:9:18 @ The Jews did not believe that he had been blind and had received his sight, until they called the parents of the man who had received his sight,
rsv@John:9:19 @ and asked them, "Is this your son, who you say was born blind? How then does he now see?"
rsv@John:9:20 @ His parents answered, "We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind;
