Contextual Overview

¹³ They brought him who from the beginning was blind to the Pharishee. ¹⁴ Now it was shabath when Jeshu made the clay and opened his eyes: ¹⁵ and again the Pharishee questioned him, How didst thou receive sight ? He said to them, He put clay upon mine eyes, and I washed, and received sight. ¹⁶ And some of the Pharishee said, This man is not from Aloha; for the shabath he keepeth not. But others said, How can a man, a sinner, perform these signs ? And there was a division among them. ¹⁷ They say again to the blind, What sayest thou concerning him, because he hath opened thine eyes ? He saith to them, I say that he is the Prophet. ¹⁸ But believed not concerning him the Jihudoyee that blind he had been and made-to-see, until they called the parents of him who had been made to see, ¹⁹ and asked them, If this is your son who, you say, was born blind, how now doth he see ? ²⁰ His parents answered and said, We know that this (is) our son, and that blind he was born. ²¹ But how he now seeth, or who hath opened his eyes, we know not. He also hath entered on his years, ask him: he for himself shall speak. ²² These words said his parents, because they feared the Jihudoyee; for the Jihudoyee had determined that if any man should confess him that he was the Meshicha, they would cast him out of the synagogue:

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Then said they to him again,.... Finding they could not bring him to deny the fact, or cause him to entertain an ill opinion of him that did it, they examine him again about the manner of it:

what did he to thee? how opened he thine eyes? These questions they had put before, John 9:15, and propose them again, in hope he would vary in the account, which they would not fail of improving against him; or that it would appear that he had not been really blind, at least from his birth; or that Christ made use of some unlawful means, as magic art, which they were always ready to charge him with, and to impute his miracles to a diabolical familiarity and influence; and they would have been glad to have had something to support such a calumny.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

How opened he thine eyes? - The reason why they asked this so often was doubtless to attempt to draw him into a contradiction; either to intimidate him, or throw him off his guard, so that he might be detected in denying what he had before affirmed. But God gave to this poor man grace and strength to make a bold confession of the truth, and sufficient common sense completely to confound his proud and subtle examiners.
