John 9:18-23

18Now the Jewish religious leaders refused to believe that he had really been blind and had gained his sight until at last they summoned the parents of the man who had become able to see.

19They asked the parents, “Is this your son, whom you say was born blind? Then how does he now see?”

20So his parents replied, “We know that this is our son and that he was born blind.

21But we do not know how he is now able to see, nor do we know who caused him to see. Ask him, he is a mature adult. He will speak for himself.”

22(His parents said these things because they were afraid of the Jewish religious leaders. For the Jewish leaders had already agreed that anyone who confessed Jesus to be the Christ would be put out of the synagogue.

23For this reason his parents said, “He is a mature adult, ask him.”)
