ヨハネの福音書 9:36 JCB

The Pulpit Commentary - John 9:35-38

A heart made ready for faith. In this interview the purposes of Christ's love with regard to this poor man were fully accomplished. The opening of his bodily eyes, the trials to which he was afterwards subjected , led up to the consummation desired by his Benefactor. By gradual stages he had come to that point, at which only a fuller revelation of the Lord was required, in order that his faith might be perfected. I.

The Pulpit Commentary - John 9:35-38

A happy meeting. We have in this passage— I. JESUS IN SEARCH FOR THE OUTCAST . 1. He had lost sight of him for a while . He had not seen him since he went on the path of duty and obedience to the pool of Siloam. It was well that they should be apart for some time. Important purposes were thus answered. But neither Jesus nor the man was idle. Jesus was about his Father's business; and the man that had been blind, according to Christ's statement, was busily... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - John 9:36

He answered and said, £ And who is he, that ( ἵνα ) I may believe on him? The conjunction adds much to the eagerness of the reply. His faith was ready for full expression. He half suspected, as the Samaritan woman ( John 4:25 ) did, that Jesus was pointing to himself. The τίς ; rather than τί ; ("who?" rather than "what?") shows the intensity of the man's desire to find and hail and trust "the Son of God." The disposition, the posture, of his mind is that of faith. The... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - John 9:36

Who is he? - It is probable that the man did not know that he who now addressed him was the same who had healed him. He had not yet seen him John 9:7, but he was prepared to acknowledge him when he did see him. He inquired, therefore, who the person was, or wished that he might be pointed out to him, that he might see him. This passage shows that he was disposed to believe, and had a strong desire to see and hear the Son of God.Lord - This word here, as in many other instances in the New... read more

John 9:35-38. Jesus heard that they had cast him out Had excommunicated the poor man for his sake; and when he had found him Which it appears he did soon after; he said unto him, privately, Dost thou believe on the Son of God The great expected Messiah? Dost thou give credit to the promises of the Messiah? Dost thou expect his coming, and art thou ready to receive and embrace him when he is manifested to thee? This was that faith of the Son of God which they lived by, who lived before... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - John 9:1-41

92. Dispute concerning a blind man (John 9:1-41)Some Jews believed that diseases and physical disabilities were the result of either a person’s own sins or the sins of the person’s parents. When Jesus met a blind man, his disciples asked him which was the most likely cause of the man’s blindness (John 9:1-2).Jesus was not interested in discussing theoretical questions just to satisfy people’s curiosity. He was more concerned with healing the man, and in this way he would bring glory to God. His... read more

He answered and said, And who is he, Lord, that I may believe on him?The man evidently had an extensive knowledge of the Scriptures, as indicated by his boldness before the Pharisees; but he had not received any testimony except his own deductions from the miracle, to the effect that Jesus was the Son of God. Such testimony, therefore, from the Master himself he sought and received. read more
