My personal experience with blindness has been short-lived, for which I am grateful. While I was in college, late one night I was awakened by pain from an infected wisdom tooth.

1 Now as Jesus was passing by, he saw121 a man who had been blind from birth. 2 His disciples asked him, “Rabbi, who committed the sin that caused him to be born blind, this man or his parents?” 3 Jesus answered, “Neither this man nor his parents sinned, but he was born blind so that the acts of God may be revealed through what happens to him. 4 We...

I would like to focus your attention on three important matters as we conclude this lesson. First, our text makes a very significant contribution to our understanding of the divine perspective on suffering. It is apparent from our text that many of the Jews misunderstand the purpose and place of suffering. They assume that suffering must be the con...
Mar 21, 2023 · As Jesus “went along, he saw a man blind from birth” (John 9:1). The text doesn’t tell us why Jesus immediately noticed the blind man.

May 4, 2014 · The lesson is: Jesus came to give sight to the spiritually blind, but also to bring those who think they see without Him to judgment. To quote Jesus (9:39), “For judgment I came into this world, so that those who do not see may see, and that those who see may become blind.”.

The blind man was given both sight and knowledge by Jesus in response to sincere faith. Those who are arrogant and presume they already know will be hardened by the presence of Jesus. Despite their knowledge (John 5:39–40), they'll allow their own prejudice to blind them (2 Corinthians 4:4), making them incapable of understanding what they don't want to understand anyway (John 7:17).
