1 As Jesus passed along, he saw a man who had been born blind.2 And his disciples asked him, saying, Rabbi, who sinned: this man, or his parents, that he was born blind?3 Jesus answered, Neither this man nor his parents sinned. It was only that the works of God might be displayed upon him.4 I must do the work of him who sent me, while it is day; the night comes, when no man can work.5 While I am in the world, I am the light of the world.6 Having said this, he spit upon the ground, and with the clay, which he made with the spittle, anointed the blind man's eyes,7 and said to him, Go wash in the pool of Siloam, (which signifies Sent.) He went, therefore, and washed them, and returned seeing.
