Context of John 9:37

35Jesus heard that the Jewish leaders had thrown the man out. So he went and he found the man. Jesus asked him, ‘Do you believe in the Son of Man?’ 36The man answered, ‘Sir, please tell me who he is. Then I can believe in him.’ Jesus said to him, ‘You have already seen him. It is me, the one who is talking to you now.’ 38Then the man said, ‘Lord, now I believe.’ He bent down on his knees and he worshipped Jesus. 39Then Jesus said, ‘I came into this world to judge people. Then people who know that they are blind will be able to see. And people who think they can see will become blind.’
