1 And as he passed on, he saw a man who had been blind from his birth.
2 And his disciples asked him, saying, Master, who sinned, this man, or his parents, that he was born blind?
3 Jesus answered, Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents, but that the works of God might be made manifest thro' him.
4 I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day; the night is coming, when no man can work.
5 While I am in the world, I am the light of the world. Having said this,
6 he spit on the ground, and made clay with the spittle, and anointed the eyes of the blind man with the clay,
7 And said to him, Go wash at the pool of Siloam, (which is by interpretation, Sent.) He went therefore, and washed, and came seeing.
8 Then the neighbours and they who had seen him before, when he was blind, said, Is not this he who used to sit begging?
9 Some said, This is he: others, He is like him: but he said, I am he.
10 They said to him, How were thine eyes opened?
11 He answered and said, A man called Jesus made clay and anointed my eyes, and said to me, Go to the pool of Siloam and wash.
12 And I went, and washed, and received sight. Then said they to him, Where is he? He said, I know not.
13 They bring to the Pharisees the man who had aforetime been blind.
14 (It was the sabbath, when Jesus made the clay and opened his eyes.)
15 Again the Pharisees also asked him, How he had received his sight? He said to them, He put clay on my eyes, and I washed, and see.
16 Therefore said some of the Pharisees, This man is not of God, because he keepeth not the sabbath. Others said, How can a man that is a sinner, do such miracles?
17 And there was a division among them. They say to the blind man again, What sayest thou of him, for that he hath opened thine eyes?
18 He said, He is a prophet. But the Jews did not believe concerning him, that he had been blind and received his sight, till they had called the parents of him who had received his sight.
19 And they asked them, saying, Is this your son, who ye say was born blind?
20 How then doth he now see? His parents answered them, and said, We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind.
21 But how he now seeth, we know not, or who hath opened his eyes, we know not.
22 He is of age: ask him; he will speak concerning himself. His parents said this, because they feared the Jews; for the Jews had already agreed, That if any man should own him to be Christ, he should be put out of the synagogue.
23 Therefore said his parents, He is of age; ask him.
24 Therefore they called a second time the man that had been blind, and said to him, Give glory to God; we know that this man is a sinner.
25 He answered and said, That he is a sinner I know not: one thing I know, that I was blind, and now see.
26 They said to him again, What did he to thee?
27 How opened he thine eyes? He answered them, I have told you already, and ye did not hearken: why would ye hear it again?
28 Are ye also willing to be his disciples? Then they reviled him and said, Thou art a disciple of that fellow; but we are disciples of Moses.
29 We know that God spake to Moses; but we know not this fellow, whence he is.
30 The man answered and said to them, Why herein is a marvellous thing, that ye know not whence he is; altho' he hath opened my eyes!
31 We know that God heareth not sinners; but if a man be a worshiper of God, and do his will, him he heareth.
32 Since the world began it was not heard, that any man opened the eyes of one that was born blind.
33 If this man were not of God, he could do nothing.
34 They answered and said to him, Thou-wast altogether born in sins, and dost thou teach us? And they cast him out.
35 Jesus heard that they had cast him out; and having found him, he said to him, Dost thou believe on the Son of God?
36 He answered and said, Sir, who is he, that I may believe on him?
37 Jesus said to him, Thou hast both seen him, and he that talketh with thee is he.
38 And he said, Lord, I believe.
39 And he worshiped him. Jesus said, For judgment am I come into the world, that they who see not, may see, and that they who see, may become blind.
40 And some of the Pharisees that were with him heard this, and said to him, Are we blind also?
41 Jesus said to them, If ye had been blind, ye would have had no sin. But now ye say, We see: therefore your sin remaineth.

24 Verily, verily I say unto you, he that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and cometh not into condemnation, but is passed from death to life.
25 Verily, verily I say unto you, The hour is coming, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God, and they that hear shall live.
26 For as the Father hath life in himself, so hath he given to the Son also to have life in himself,
27 And hath given him authority, to execute judgment likewise, because he is the Son of man.
John 5:36
36 But I have a greater testimony than that of John: for the works which the Father hath given me to fulfil, the very works which I do, testify of me, that the Father hath sent me.
John 5:44
44 How can ye believe, while ye receive honour one of another, and seek not the honour that is from God only?
45 Think not that I will accuse you to the Father: there is one that accuseth you even Moses, in whom ye trust.
46 For had ye believed Moses, ye would have believed me; for he wrote of me.
47 But if ye believe not his writings, how shall ye believe my words?

19 Did not Moses give you the law?
John 7:21-23
21 Jesus answered and said to them, I did one work, and ye all marvel at it.
22 Moses gave you circumcision, (not that it is of Moses, but of the fathers) and ye circumcise a man on the sabbath.
23 If a man receive circumcision on the sabbath, that the law of Moses may not be broken: Are ye angry at me, because I intirely healed a man on the sabbath?

John 7:49-49
John 8:3-8
3 And the scribes and Pharisees bring a woman taken in adultery, and having set her in the midst,
4 They say to him, Master, this woman was taken actually committing adultery.
5 Now Moses hath commanded us in the law, to stoee such.
6 What therefore sayest t`ou? This they spoke tempting him, that they might have to accuse him. But Jesus stooping down, wrote with his finger on the ground.
7 And as they continued asking him, he raised himself and said to them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.
8 Then stooping down again, he wrote an the ground.

John 9:2
2 And his disciples asked him, saying, Master, who sinned, this man, or his parents, that he was born blind?
John 9:6-7
6 he spit on the ground, and made clay with the spittle, and anointed the eyes of the blind man with the clay,
7 And said to him, Go wash at the pool of Siloam, (which is by interpretation, Sent.) He went therefore, and washed, and came seeing.
8 Then the neighbours and they who had seen him before, when he was blind, said, Is not this he who used to sit begging?
9 Some said, This is he: others, He is like him: but he said, I am he.
10 They said to him, How were thine eyes opened?

13 They bring to the Pharisees the man who had aforetime been blind.
14 (It was the sabbath, when Jesus made the clay and opened his eyes.)
15 Again the Pharisees also asked him, How he had received his sight? He said to them, He put clay on my eyes, and I washed, and see.
John 9:15-15
John 9:21
21 But how he now seeth, we know not, or who hath opened his eyes, we know not.
22 He is of age: ask him; he will speak concerning himself. His parents said this, because they feared the Jews; for the Jews had already agreed, That if any man should own him to be Christ, he should be put out of the synagogue.
John 9:24
John 9:26-27
John 9:27-27
27 How opened he thine eyes? He answered them, I have told you already, and ye did not hearken: why would ye hear it again?

John 9:30
30 The man answered and said to them, Why herein is a marvellous thing, that ye know not whence he is; altho' he hath opened my eyes!
31 We know that God heareth not sinners; but if a man be a worshiper of God, and do his will, him he heareth.
32 Since the world began it was not heard, that any man opened the eyes of one that was born blind.
33 If this man were not of God, he could do nothing.
34 They answered and said to him, Thou-wast altogether born in sins, and dost thou teach us? And they cast him out.
35 Jesus heard that they had cast him out; and having found him, he said to him, Dost thou believe on the Son of God?
36 He answered and said, Sir, who is he, that I may believe on him?
37 Jesus said to him, Thou hast both seen him, and he that talketh with thee is he.
38 And he said, Lord, I believe.
39 And he worshiped him. Jesus said, For judgment am I come into the world, that they who see not, may see, and that they who see, may become blind.
40 And some of the Pharisees that were with him heard this, and said to him, Are we blind also?
John 10:19

4 Jesus hearing it, said, This sickness is not to death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God may be glorified thereby.
John 11:9-10
John 11:27
27 Believest thou this? She saith to him, Yea, Lord, I believe thou art the Christ, the Son of God, who was to come into the world.
John 11:37
37 Could not this person, who opened the eyes of the blind, have even caused that this man should not have died?
John 11:40
40 Jesus saith to her, Said I not to thee, if thou wouldest believe, thou shouldest see the glory of God?
41 Then they took away the stone from where the dead lay. And Jesus lifted up his eyes and said,
42 Father, I thank thee, that thou hast heard me. And I knew that thou hearest me always: but I spake this, because of the people who stand by, that they may believe thou hast sent me.
John 11:46-47

John 12:35-36
35 Who is this Son of man? Then Jesus said to them, Yet a little while is the light with you. Walk while ye have the light, lest darkness overtake you, for he that walketh in darkness, knoweth not whither he goeth.
36 While ye have the light, believe in the light, that ye may become children of light. These things spake Jesus, and retiring concealed himself from them.
37 But tho' he had done so many miracles before them, yet they believed not on him;
John 12:37
37 But tho' he had done so many miracles before them, yet they believed not on him;
38 So that the word of the prophet Isaiah was fulfilled which he said, Lord, who hath believed our report? And to whom hath the arm of the Lord been revealed?
39 Therefore they could not believe, according to what Isaiah said again.
40 He hath blinded their eyes, and hardened their hearts, that they might not see with their eyes, and understand with their heart, and be converted, that I might heal them.
John 12:40-41
40 He hath blinded their eyes, and hardened their hearts, that they might not see with their eyes, and understand with their heart, and be converted, that I might heal them.

13 And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, I will do it, that the Father may be glorified thro' the Son.
John 14:21-23
21 He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me, shall be loved by my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.
22 Judas (not Iscariot) saith to him, Lord, how is it, that thou wilt manifest thyself to us, and not to the world?
23 Jesus answered and said to him, If any man love me, he will keep my words; and my Father will love him, and we will come to him, and make our abode with him.
John 14:30
30 Hereafter I shall not talk much with with you; for the prince of this world is coming; but he hath nothing in me:

John 15:22-24
22 If I had not come and spoken to them, they had not had sin; but now they have no excuse for their sin.

8 And leaping up, he stood and walked, and went with them into the temple, walking, and leaping, and praising God.

24 Yea, and all the prophets from Samuel and them that followed, whosoever have spoken, have also foretold these days.
