17. They say therefore unto the blind man again, What sayest thou of him, in that he opened thine eyes? And he said, He is a prophet.
18. The Jews therefore did not believe concerning him, that he had been blind, and had received his sight, until they called the parents of him that had received his sight,
19. and asked them, saying, Is this your son, who ye say was born blind? how then doth he now see?
20. His parents answered 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 opened his eyes, we know not: ask him; he is of age; he shall speak for himself.
22. These things said his parents, because they feared the Jews: for the Jews had agreed already, that if any man should confess him to be Christ, he should be put out of the synagogue.
23. Therefore said his parents, He is of age; ask him.
24. So they called a second time the man that was blind, and said unto him, Give glory to God: we know that this man is a sinner.
25. He therefore answered, Whether he be a sinner, I know not: one thing I know, that, whereas I was blind, now I see.
26. They said therefore unto him, What did he to thee? how opened he thine eyes?
27. He answered them, I told you even now, and ye did not hear: wherefore would ye hear it again? would ye also become his disciples?
28. And they reviled him, and said, Thou art his disciple; but we are disciples of Moses.
29. We know that God hath spoken unto Moses: but as for this man, we know not whence he is.
30. The man answered and said unto them, Why, herein is the marvel, that ye know not whence he is, and yet he opened mine eyes.
