30 The man replied, I never saw the light until today, for I was blind from birth.
31 This morning as I sat beside Siloam, a man I never knew put on my eyes a salve that people say he made of clay; he bade me say a word and bathe my eyes in water seven times; I did as he commanded and I saw.
32 A lawyer asked the man, Who was it opened up your eyes?
33 The man replied, Some people say, His name is Jesus and that he came from Galilee; but others say, He is the son of God.
34 A Pharisee came up and said, This is the Sabbath day; a man who does a work like this, regarding not the Sabbath day, is not from God.
35 Some of the priests were much amazed and said, A wicked man could never do a miracle like this; he must possess the power of God. And so they strove among themselves.
36 They asked the man, What do you think about this man from Galilee?
37 He said, He is a prophet sent from God.
38 Now, many of the Jews did not believe the man was blind from birth; they said, There is no power to open up the eyes of one born blind.
39 And then they brought the parents of the man before the Pharisees that they might testify.
