NETBible

So the Pharisees asked him again how he had gained his sight.¹ He replied,² “He put mud³ on my eyes and I washed, and now⁴ I am able to see.”

NET Notes

¹tn Or “how he had become able to see.”

¹sn So the Pharisees asked him. Note the subtlety here: On the surface, the man is being judged. But through him, Jesus is being judged. Yet in reality (as the discerning reader will realize) it is ironically the Pharisees themselves who are being judged by their response to Jesus who is the light of the world (cf. 3:17-21).

²tn Grk “And he said to them.”

³tn Or “clay” (moistened earth of a clay-like consistency).

⁴tn The word “now” is not in the Greek text, but is supplied to indicate the contrast between the man’s former state (blind) and his present state (able to see).
