Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - John 9:13-34

One would have expected that such a miracle as Christ wrought upon the blind man would have settled his reputation, and silenced and shamed all opposition, but it had the contrary effect; instead of being embraced as a prophet for it, he is prosecuted as a criminal. I. Here is the information that was given in to the Pharisees concerning this matter: They brought to the Pharisees him that aforetime was blind, John 9:13. They brought him to the great sanhedrim, which consisted chiefly of... read more

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - John 9:35-38

In these verses we may observe, I. The tender care which our Lord Jesus took of this poor man (John 9:35): When Jesus heard that they had cast him out (for it is likely the town rang of it, and everybody cried out shame upon them for it), then he found him, which implies his seeking him and looking after him, that he might encourage and comfort him, 1. Because he had, to the best of his knowledge, spoken so very well, so bravely, so boldly, in defence of the Lord Jesus. Note, Jesus Christ will... read more

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - John 9:39-41

Christ, having spoken comfort to the poor man that was persecuted, here speaks conviction to his persecutors, a specimen of the distributions of trouble and rest at the great day, 2 Thess. 1:6, 7. Probably this was not immediately after his discourse with the man, but he took the next opportunity that offered itself to address the Pharisees. Here is, I. The account Christ gives of his design in coming into the world (John 9:39): ?For judgment I am come to order and administer the great affairs... read more

William Barclay's Daily Study Bible - John 9:1-41

Before we leave this very wonderful chapter we would do well to read it again, this time straight through from start to finish. If we do so read it with care and attention, we will see the loveliest progression in the blind man's idea of Jesus. It goes through three stages, each one higher than the last. (i) He began by calling Jesus a man. "A man that is called Jesus opened mine eyes" ( John 9:11 ). He began by thinking of Jesus as a wonderful man. He had never met anyone who could do... read more

William Barclay's Daily Study Bible - John 9:13-16

9:13-16 They brought him, the man who had been blind, to the Pharisees. The day on which Jesus had made the clay and opened his eyes was the Sabbath day. So the Pharisees asked him again how sight had come to him. He said to them: "He put clay on my eyes; and I washed; and now I can see." So some of the Pharisees said: "This man is not from God, because he does not observe the Sabbath." But others said: "How can a man who is a sinner perform such signs?" And there was a division of opinion... read more

William Barclay's Daily Study Bible - John 9:17-34

9:17-34 Now the Jews refused to believe that he had been blind and had become able to see, until they called the parents of the man who had become able to see, and asked them: "Is this your son? And do you say that he was born blind? How, then, can he now see?" His parents answered: "We know that this is our son; and we know that he was born blind; how he has now come to see we do not know; or who it was who opened his eyes we do not know. Ask himself. He is of age. He can answer his own... read more

William Barclay's Daily Study Bible - John 9:35-41

9:35-41 Jesus heard that they had put him out, so he found him and said to him: "Do you believe in the Son of God?" "But who is he, sir," he answered him, "that I might believe in him?" Jesus said to him: "You have both seen him, and he who is talking with you is he." "Lord," he said, "I believe." And he knelt before him. Jesus said: "It was for judgment that I came into this world that those who do not see might see, and that those who see might become blind." Some of the Pharisees who were... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - John 9:15

Then again the Pharisees asked him ,.... Not that they had put any question of this kind to him before; but they also, as well as the neighbours, inquired of him, how he had received his sight ; from whom, and by what means: he said unto them, he put clay upon mine eyes, and I washed and do see . This account agrees with the matter of fact, and with that he gave to his neighbours: he did not vary as to the truth of the relation, but this is somewhat more concise and short; and it is... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - John 9:16

Wherefore said some of the Pharisees ,.... Or sanhedrim, for they were not all of one mind, as appears by what follows: this man is not of God ; meaning not the blind man, but Jesus; and their sense is, he is not sent of God, he does not come from him to do his will and work, nor does he seek his glory, nor is he on his side, or for his interest; because he keepeth not the sabbath day : this they concluded from his making clay of spittle, and spreading it on the blind man's eyes,... read more

John Gill

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - John 9:17

They say unto the blind man again ,.... After they had discoursed among themselves, and could not agree about the author of the miracle, they turn to him that had been blind, who is called the blind man, because he had been so, and ask him his sentiments of him: what sayest thou of him, that he hath opened thine eyes ? the question seems, at first sight, as if it was, whether Jesus had opened his eyes or not; but by the answer it appears, that it required his thoughts of him, "who hath... read more
