Contextual Overview

13 They bring to the Pharisees the man who had aforetime been blind. 14 (It was the sabbath, when Jesus made the clay and opened his eyes.) 15 Again the Pharisees also asked him, How he had received his sight? He said to them, He put clay on my eyes, and I washed, and see. 16 Therefore said some of the Pharisees, This man is not of God, because he keepeth not the sabbath. Others said, How can a man that is a sinner, do such miracles? 17 And there was a division among them. They say to the blind man again, What sayest thou of him, for that he hath opened thine eyes? 18 He said, He is a prophet. But the Jews did not believe concerning him, that he had been blind and received his sight, till they had called the parents of him who had received his sight. 19 And they asked them, saying, Is this your son, who ye say was born blind? 20 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. 21 But how he now seeth, we know not, or who hath opened his eyes, we know not. 22 He is of age: ask him; he will speak concerning himself. His parents said this, because they feared the Jews; for the Jews had already agreed, That if any man should own him to be Christ, he should be put out of the synagogue.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And it was the sabbath day when Jesus made the clay,.... Which was reckoned a violation of the sabbath, John 9:16, and was one reason why they had the man to the Pharisees to be examined, and why they were desirous of knowing where Jesus was:

and opened his eyes; by putting on the clay, and sending him to wash in the Pool of Siloam: nor did the miracle, nor the good done to the man, excuse with them, what they thought a breach of the sabbath.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse John 9:14. It was the Sabbath — Some of the ancient rabbins taught, and they have been followed by some moderns, not much better skilled in physic than themselves, that the saliva is a cure for several disorders of the eyes; but the former held this to be contrary to the law, if applied on the Sabbath.
