12
Then they said unto him, "Where is he?" He said, "I know not."
13
They brought to the Pharisees him that beforehand was blind.
14
And it was the Sabbath day when Jesus made the clay and opened his eyes.
15
Then again the Pharisees also asked him how he had received his sight. He said unto them, "He put clay upon mine eyes, and I washed and do see."
16
Therefore some of the Pharisees said, "This man is not of God, because he keepeth not the Sabbath day." Others said, "How can a man who is a sinner do such miracles?" And there was a division among them.
17
They said unto the blind man again, "What sayest thou of him, that he hath opened thine eyes?" He said, "He is a prophet."
18
But the Jews did not believe concerning him that he had been blind and received his sight, until they called the parents of him that had received his sight.
19
And they asked them, saying, "Is this your son, who ye say was born blind? How then doth he now see?"
20
His parents answered them and said, "We know that this is our son and that he was born blind;
21
but by what means he now seeth we know not, or who hath opened his eyes we know not. He is of age; ask him. He shall speak for himself."
22
These words spoke his parents, because they feared the Jews; for the Jews had agreed already that if any man confessed that He was Christ, he should be put out of the synagogue.
