John 9 — Context

11

He answered, "The man who is called Jesus made clay, and anointed my eyes, and said to me, 'Go to Siloam and wash'; so I went away and washed, and I received sight."

12

They said to him, "Where is He?" He *said, "I do not know."

13

They *brought to the Pharisees the man who was formerly blind.

14

Now it was a Sabbath on the day when Jesus made the clay and opened his eyes.

15

Then the Pharisees also were asking him again how he received his sight. And he said to them, "He applied clay to my eyes, and I washed, and I see."

16

Therefore some of the Pharisees were saying, "This man is not from God, because He does not keep the Sabbath." But others were saying, "How can a man who is a sinner perform such signs?" And there was a division among them.

17

So they *said to the blind man again, "What do you say about Him, since He opened your eyes?" And he said, "He is a prophet."
