John - ch 9 v 1 - 20
- And Jesus passing by, saw a man, who was blind from his birth:
- And his disciples asked him: Rabbi, who hath sinned, this man, or his parents, that he should be born blind?
- Jesus answered: Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents; but that the works of God should be made manifest in him.
- I must work the works of him that sent me, whilst it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work.
- As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.
- When he had said these things, he spat on the ground, and made clay of the spittle, and spread the clay on his eyes,

- But others said: No, but he is like him. But he said: I am he.

- They say therefore to the blind man again: What sayest thou of him that hath opened they eyes? And he said: He is a prophet.
- The Jews then did not believe concerning him, that he had been blind, and had received his sight, until they called the parents of him that had received his sight,
- And asked them, saying: Is this your son, who you say was born blind? How then doth he now see?
- His parents answered them, and said: We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind:
