John 9:38 Meaning and Commentary

John 9:38

And he said, Lord, I believe
He immediately found faith in his soul, and that in exercise, moving towards, and acting upon Christ, as the Son of God, and true Messiah, for everlasting life and salvation; and as soon as he did perceive it, he made an open and hearty profession of it:

and he worshipped him:
as God, with religious worship and adoration, not only trusting in him, but ascribing honour, glory, and blessing to him, which are due to God only, and not a creature.

John 9:38 In-Context

36 respondit ille et dixit quis est Domine ut credam in eum

37 et dixit ei Iesus et vidisti eum et qui loquitur tecum ipse est

38 at ille ait credo Domine et procidens adoravit eum

39 dixit ei Iesus in iudicium ego in hunc mundum veni ut qui non vident videant et qui vident caeci fiant

40 et audierunt ex Pharisaeis qui cum ipso erant et dixerunt ei numquid et nos caeci sumus
