João 9:26

26 Perguntaram-lhe pois: Que foi que te fez? Como te abriu os olhos?

João 9:26 Meaning and Commentary

John 9:26

Then said they to him again
Finding they could not bring him to deny the fact, or cause him to entertain an ill opinion of him that did it, they examine him again about the manner of it:

what did he to thee? how opened he thine eyes?
These questions they had put before, ( John 9:15 ) , and propose them again, in hope he would vary in the account, which they would not fail of improving against him; or that it would appear that he had not been really blind, at least from his birth; or that Christ made use of some unlawful means, as magic art, which they were always ready to charge him with, and to impute his miracles to a diabolical familiarity and influence; and they would have been glad to have had something to support such a calumny.

João 9:26 In-Context

24 Então chamaram pela segunda vez o homem que fora cego, e lhe disseram: Dá glória a Deus; nós sabemos que esse homem é pecador.
25 Respondeu ele: Se é pecador, não sei; uma coisa sei: eu era cego, e agora vejo.
26 Perguntaram-lhe pois: Que foi que te fez? Como te abriu os olhos?
27 Respondeu-lhes: Já vo-lo disse, e não atendestes; para que o quereis tornar a ouvir? Acaso também vós quereis tornar-vos discípulos dele?
28 Então o injuriaram, e disseram: Discípulo dele és tu; nós porém, somos discípulos de Moisés.
