Gospel – John (J 4, 5-42)<\/strong><\/h1>\n

As he walked along, he saw a man blind from birth.
\nHis disciples asked him, “Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?”
\nJesus answered, “Neither this man nor his parents sinned; he was born blind so that God’s works might be revealed in him.
\nWe must work the works of him who sent me while it is day; night is coming when no one can work.
\nAs long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.”
\nWhen he had said this, he spat on the ground and made mud with the saliva and spread the mud on the man’s eyes,
\nsaying to him, “Go, wash in the pool of Siloam” (which means Sent). Then he went and washed and came back able to see.<\/h4>\n

The neighbors and those who had seen him before as a beggar began to ask, “Is this not the man who used to sit and beg?”
\nSome were saying, “It is he.” Others were saying, “No, but it is someone like him.” He kept saying, “I am the man.”
\nBut they kept asking him, “Then how were your eyes opened?”
\nHe answered, “The man called Jesus made mud, spread it on my eyes, and said to me, ‘Go to Siloam and wash.’ Then I went and washed and received my sight.”
\nThey said to him, “Where is he?” He said, “I do not know.”
\nThey brought to the Pharisees the man who had formerly been blind.<\/h4>\n

Now it was a sabbath day when Jesus made the mud and opened his eyes.
\nThen the Pharisees also began to ask him how he had received his sight. He said to them, “He put mud on my eyes. Then I washed, and now I see.”<\/h4>\n

Some of the Pharisees said, “This man is not from God, for he does not observe the sabbath.” But others said, “How can a man who is a sinner perform such signs?” And they were divided.
\nSo they said again to the blind man, “What do you say about him? It was your eyes he opened.” He said, “He is a prophet.”
\nThe Jews did not believe that he had been blind and had received his sight until they called the parents of the man who had received his sight
\nand asked them, “Is this your son, who you say was born blind? How then does he now see?”<\/h4>\n

His parents answered, “We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind;
\nbut we do not know how it is that now he sees, nor do we know who opened his eyes. Ask him; he is of age. He will speak for himself.”
\nHis parents said this because they were afraid of the Jews; for the Jews had already agreed that anyone who confessed Jesus to be the Messiah would be put out of the synagogue.
\nTherefore his parents said, “He is of age; ask him.”
\nSo for the second time they called the man who had been blind, and they said to him, “Give glory to God! We know that this man is a sinner.”
\nHe answered, “I do not know whether he is a sinner. One thing I do know, that though I was blind, now I see.”
\nThey said to him, “What did he do to you? How did he open your eyes?”
\nHe answered them, “I have told you already, and you would not listen. Why do you want to hear it again? Do you also want to become his disciples?”
\nThen they reviled him, saying, “You are his disciple, but we are disciples of Moses.
\nWe know that God has spoken to Moses, but as for this man, we do not know where he comes from.”
\nThe man answered, “Here is an astonishing thing! You do not know where he comes from, and yet he opened my eyes.
\nWe know that God does not listen to sinners, but he does listen to one who worships him and obeys his will.<\/h4>\n

Never since the world began has it been heard that anyone opened the eyes of a person born blind.
\nIf this man were not from God, he could do nothing.”
\nThey answered him, “You were born entirely in sins, and are you trying to teach us?” And they drove him out.
\nJesus heard that they had driven him out, and when he found him, he said, “Do you believe in the Son of Man?”
\nHe answered, “And who is he, sir? Tell me, so that I may believe in him.”
\nJesus said to him, “You have seen him, and the one speaking with you is he.”<\/h4>\n

He said, “Lord, I believe.” And he worshiped him.
\nJesus said, “I came into this world for judgment so that those who do not see may see, and those who do see may become blind.”
\nSome of the Pharisees near him heard this and said to him, “Surely we are not blind, are we?”
\nJesus said to them, “If you were blind, you would not have sin. But now that you say, ‘We see,’ your sin remains.<\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
