19. And they asked them, saying, “Is this your son, who you say was born blind? How then does he now see?”
20. His parents answered them and said, “We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind,
21. but how he now sees we do not know, or who opened his eyes we do not know. He is of age, ask him, he shall speak concerning himself.”
22. His parents said this because they were afraid of the Yehuḏim, for the Yehuḏim had already agreed that if anyone confessed that He was Messiah, he should be put out of the congregation.
23. Because of this his parents said, “He is of age, ask him.”
24. So for the second time they called the man who was blind, and said to him, “Give esteem to Elohim, we know that this Man is a sinner.”
25. Then he answered and said, “Whether He is a sinner, I do not know. I only know that I was blind, now I see.”
26. And they asked him once more, “What did He do to you? How did He open your eyes?”
27. He answered them, “I have told you already, and you did not hear. Why do you wish to hear it again? Do you wish to become His taught ones too?”
28. Then they abused him and said, “You are His taught one, but we are taught ones of Mosheh.
29. “We know that Elohim has spoken to Mosheh, but this One, we do not know where He is from.”
30. The man answered and said to them, “Why, this is a wonder! You do not know where He is from, yet He opened my eyes!
