(See Gill on John 9:21).

John 9:23 In-Context

21 but how he now sees we do not know, or who has opened his eyes we do not know. *He* is of age: ask *him*; *he* will speak concerning himself.

22 His parents said these things because they feared the Jews, for the Jews had already agreed that if any one confessed him [to be the] Christ, he should be excommunicated from the synagogue.

23 On this account his parents said, He is of age: ask *him*.

24 They called therefore a second time the man who had been blind, and said to him, Give glory to God: we know that this man is sinful.

25 He answered therefore, If he is sinful I know not. One thing I know, that, being blind [before], now I see.
