6
Having said this, he spit on the ground, made some mud with the saliva, put the mud on the man's eyes,
7
and said to him, "Go, wash off in the Pool of Shiloach!" (The name means "sent.") So he went and washed and came away seeing.
8
His neighbors and those who previously had seen him begging said, "Isn't this the man who used to sit and beg?"
9
Some said, "Yes, he's the one"; while others said, "No, but he looks like him." However, he himself said, "I'm the one."
10
"How were your eyes opened?" they asked him.
11
He answered, "The man called Yeshua made mud, put it on my eyes, and told me, `Go to Shiloach and wash!' So I went; and as soon as I had washed, I could see."
12
They said to him, "Where is he?" and he replied, "I don't know."
13
They took the man who had been blind to the P'rushim.
14
Now the day on which Yeshua had made the mud and opened his eyes was Shabbat.
15
So the P'rushim asked him again how he had become able to see; and he told them, "He put mud on my eyes, then I washed, and now I can see."
16
At this, some of the P'rushim said, "This man is not from God, because he doesn't keep Shabbat." But others said, "How could a man who is a sinner do miracles like these?" And there was a split among them.
