The Gospel of John, Chapter 9

14. Now as it happened, this all occurred on a Sabbath. 15. Then the Pharisees asked him all about it. So he told them how Jesus had smoothed the mud over his eyes, and when it was washed away, he could see!
16. Some of them said, "Then this fellow Jesus is not from God, because he is working on the Sabbath." Others said, "But how could an ordinary sinner do such miracles?" So there was a deep division of opinion among them.
17. Then the Pharisees turned on the man who had been blind and demanded, "This man who opened your eyes - who do you say he is?" "I think he must be a prophet sent from God," the man replied.
18. The Jewish leaders wouldn't believe he had been blind, until they called in his parents 19. and asked them, "Is this your son? Was he born blind? If so, how can he see?"
20. His parents replied, "We know this is our son and that he was born blind,
21. but we don't know what happened to make him see, or who did it. He is old enough to speak for himself. Ask him."
22. They said this in fear of the Jewish leaders who had announced that anyone saying Jesus was the Messiah would be excommunicated.
