    6 Having said these words, he put earth, mixed with water from his mouth, on the man's eyes,

    7 And said to him, Go and make yourself clean in the bath of Siloam (the sense of the name is, Sent). So he went away and, after washing, came back able to see.

    8 Then the neighbours and others who had seen him before in the street, with his hand out for money, said, Is not this the man who got money from people?

    9 Some said, It is he: others said, No, but he is like him. He said, I am he.

    10 So they said to him, How then were your eyes made open?

    11 His answer was: The man who is named Jesus put earth mixed with water on my eyes, and said to me, Go and make yourself clean in Siloam: so I went away and, after washing, am now able to see.

    12 And they said to him, Where is he? His answer was: I have no knowledge.

    13 They took him before the Pharisees--this man who had been blind.

    14 Now the day on which the earth was mixed by Jesus and the man's eyes were made open was the Sabbath.

    15 So the Pharisees put more questions to him about how his eyes had been made open. And he said to them, He put earth on my eyes, and I had a wash and am able to see.

    16 Then some of the Pharisees said, That man has not come from God, for he does not keep the Sabbath. Others said, How is it possible for a sinner to do such signs? So there was a division among them.

    19 And put the question to them, saying, Is this your son, of whom you say that he was blind at birth? how is it then that he is now able to see?

    20 In answer his father and mother said, We are certain that this is our son and that he was blind at birth:

    21 But how it is he is now able to see, or who made his eyes open, we are not able to say: put the question to him; he is old enough to give an answer for himself.

    22 They said this because of their fear of the Jews: for the Jews had come to an agreement that if any man said that Jesus was the Christ he would be put out of the Synagogue.

    23 That was the reason why they said, He is old enough; put the question to him.

    29 We are certain that God gave his word to Moses: but as for this man, we have no knowledge where he comes from.

    35 It came to the ears of Jesus that they had put him out, and meeting him he said, Have you faith in the Son of man?
