约翰福音第9章

《圣经》约翰福音-第9章

约9:1 耶稣过去的时候，看见一个人生来是瞎眼的。

†[吕]耶稣往前走的时候，看见一个人是生来就瞎眼的。

†[思]耶稣前行时，看见了一个生来瞎眼的人。

†[当代]后来，耶稣在路上看见一个生来就瞎眼的人。

†[新译]耶稣走路的时候，看见一个生下来就瞎眼的人。

†[Wlb]耶稣行时、见有生而瞽者、

†[Xdv]耶稣在路上看见一个生下来就瞎眼的人。

†[Kjv]And as Jesus passed by, he saw a man which was blind from his birth.

†[Nkjv]Now as Jesus passed by, He saw a man who was blind from birth.

†[BBE]And when he went on his way, he saw a man blind from birth.

†[GNT] As Jesus was walking along, he saw a man who had been born blind.

†[NIV]As he went along, he saw a man blind from birth.

本会注释　　[生来瞎眼的人：约9:1-41。见本卷注释222页地图；231页图表；关于神迹见第208-213页]。
　　耶稣过去。关于这件事的时间，见@太19:1@注释。这件医病的神迹发生在安息日（约9:14），可能是住棚节后的那个安息日，就是第7、8两章所记之事之后的那个安息日（见@约7:2；8:2@注释）。然而，这件神迹也可能发生在第8章的教训数月之后。若是这样，这件事的发生便与几个月后耶稣上耶路撒冷参加修殿节（直译为：奉献节）有关（见@约10:22@注释）。
　　生来是瞎眼的。瞎眼是由不同原因造成的，特别是沙眼，这种病至今在东方还很普遍。福音书中提到的神迹只有这一例说病症是生来就有的。

约9:2 门徒问耶稣说：“拉比，这人生来是瞎眼的，是谁犯了罪？是这人呢？是他父母呢？” (串)约1:38|本章34徒3:2|路13:2,4|出20:5

†[吕]门徒就问耶稣说：“老师（希腊文作：拉比），是谁犯了罪、使这人生来就瞎眼呢？是这人呢？还是他父母呢？”

†[思]他的门徒就问他说：“辣彼，谁犯了罪？是他，还是他的父母，竟使他生来瞎眼呢？”

†[当代]门徒问耶稣说：“老师，这个人生下来便双目失明，是因为他犯了罪，还是他父母犯了罪呢？”

†[新译]他的门徒问他：“拉比，这人生下来就瞎眼，是谁犯了罪？是他呢，还是他的父母呢？”

†[Wlb]门徒问曰、夫子、斯人生而瞽、谁获罪欤、斯人乎、抑其父母乎、

†[Xdv]他的门徒问他：“老师，这个人生来就瞎眼，是谁的罪造成的？是他自己的罪，还是他父母的罪呢？”

†[Kjv]And his disciples asked him, saying, Master, who did sin, this man, or his parents, that he was born blind?

†[Nkjv]And His disciples asked Him, saying, "Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?"

†[BBE]And his disciples put a question to him, saying, Master, was it because of this man's sin, or the sin of his father and mother, that he has been blind from birth?

†[GNT] His disciples asked him, "Teacher, whose sin caused him to be born blind? Was it his own or his parents' sin?"

†[NIV]His disciples asked him, "Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?"

本会注释　　是谁犯了罪？犹太人教训说今生的痛苦是上帝对犯罪的惩罚。根据《塔木德》宋西诺版“没有罪就没有死亡，没有过犯就没有痛苦”（Shabbath55a，第255页）。“一个病人，除非他的罪全部得到赦免，否则他决不能恢复健康”（Nedarim41a，第130页）。拉比们进一步教训说，上帝根据规则很注意让人的罪得到其应有的刑罚，毫厘不爽。《密西拿》举了几个例子：“一个人怎样待别人，也要怎样待他。”“参孙随从自己（眼目的情欲），因此非利士人就挖出他的眼睛。……押沙龙以他的头发为傲，因此头发被挂在树上。因为他与他父亲的十个嫔妃同居，因此被十把短枪扎刺。……因为他欺骗了三颗心，他父亲的心，法庭的心以及全以色列的心，……所以他被三根短枪刺穿了身体”（Sotah 1. 7,8，《塔木德》宋西诺版第37,41页）。犹太人认为每一宗罪都有它相对应的刑罚。他们还相信，在某些情况下，可以根据一个人所受的痛苦来决定一个人的罪。圣殿被毁、犹太人的公会以及他们的行政权结束之后，拉比约瑟夫教导说，上帝鉴察那些该死之人应得的灾难：“有被判处用石头打死的，同样也有从房顶跌落的，有被野兽践踏的。有被判处火刑的，也有掉到火里的，有被毒蛇咬的。有被判处斩首的，也有被交付衙门的，有被强盗拿住的。有被判处绞刑的，也有在河里溺水的，有窒息而死的”（《塔木德》松奇诺版Kethuboth30a,30b，第167页）。
　　尽管这些话出现在耶稣以后的时代，但它们的确反映了祂那个时代犹太人的思想。耶稣门徒关于这件事所提的问题以及祂在路13:2,4节中关于这方面内容所发的反问都显明了犹太人的这种思想。
　　值得注意的是，尽管上述思想代表了犹太人的主流观点，但他们还是为他们所谓的爱的惩罚做了规定。他们相信这是上帝用来试验并洁净他们的。他们认为这种惩罚与律法的学习以及祷告丝毫没有冲突。甘心顺服这些惩罚的人必会得到丰厚的回报。但他们还是认为这种爱的惩罚是普遍原则中的例外，普遍的原则是，有痛苦的地方就有罪。
　　这人。如果这人眼瞎是因为自己的罪，那他必定在出生前就犯罪了，因为他生来就是瞎子。拉比们的文学作品中有一些关于犹太人认为人生前之罪累及将来或至少存在这种可能的暗示。比如，《米德拉西拉巴》关于创25:22的解释（第559,560页）就，说以扫不但在他出生时，甚至在他出生前就已经犯罪了。然而，犹太人的主流观点还是认为孩子不能为其生前的任何错误担罪。《米德拉西拉巴》关于利22:27的解释（第350页），讲述了一个故事：一位母亲将她犯罪的儿子交到法官那里。当她看到法官判处一些人鞭刑时。她开始担心如果她揭发自己儿子的罪行，他有可能被判处死刑。轮到她时她没有提起她儿子所犯的罪，而是控告说她的儿子出生前在她的肚腹中（像一头不受控制的野兽一样）踢她。法官问，他还做了什么没有？她回答说，没有。法官说，你的儿子无罪。法官的回答反映了犹太人关于孩子生前所谓罪行的普遍看法。
　　门徒显然是听到了拉比们关于这个令人困惑的问题的过于细节化的争论，因此在听耶稣谈起这个问题时感到焦虑不安。
　　他父母。门徒们这个问题至少还有些经文基础，诫命上说：“恨我的，我必追讨他的罪，自父及子，直到三四代”（出20:5）。子女们经常因父母罪恶的结果受苦，但他们决不会因父母的罪而受到惩罚（见@结18:1,2@注释；参《先祖与先知》306页）。
　　有些拉比教训说，癫痫、跛足、聋哑都是违犯细微传统律例的结果（见《塔木德》宋西诺版Pesahim 112b，第579页；Gittin70a，第333页；Nedarim20a,20b，第57,58页）。
　　他们这种关于痛苦的错误哲学是从撒但来的，因为“罪和罪一切结果的创始者撒但，已经令人看疾病和死亡是从上帝那里来的──是上帝因罪而任意独断地加在人身上的刑罚（《历代愿望》471页）。他们没有从《约伯记》中学到教训：“痛苦是撒但加在人身上的。但上帝本着怜爱的宗旨，予以掌管”（《历代愿望》471页；见@诗38:3@注释）。

约9:3 耶稣回答说：“也不是这人犯了罪，也不是他父母犯了罪，是要在他身上显出上帝的作为来。 (串)约11:4

†[吕]耶稣回答说：“也不是这人犯了罪，也不是他父母；乃是要让上帝的作为在他身上显出来罢了。

†[思]耶稣答覆说：“也不是他犯了罪，也不是他的父母，而是为叫天主的工作在他身上显扬出来。

†[当代]耶稣说：“不是他犯了罪，也不是他父母犯了罪，乃是上帝要在他身上显露祂的作为。

†[新译]耶稣回答：“不是他犯了罪，也不是他的父母犯了罪，而是要在他身上彰显　神的作为。

†[Wlb]耶稣曰、非斯人获罪、亦非其父母、惟于彼以显上帝作为耳、

†[Xdv]耶稣回答：“他瞎眼跟他自己或他父母的罪都没有关系，而是要在他身上彰显上帝的能力。

†[Kjv]Jesus answered, Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents: but that the works of God should be made manifest in him.

†[Nkjv]Jesus answered, "Neither this man nor his parents sinned, but that the works of God should be revealed in him.

†[BBE]Jesus said in answer, It was not because of his sin, or because of his father's or mother's; it was so that the works of God might be seen openly in him.

†[GNT] Jesus answered, "His blindness has nothing to do with his sins or his parents' sins. He is blind so that God's power might be seen at work in him.

†[NIV]Neither this man nor his parents sinned," said Jesus, "but this happened so that the work of God might be displayed in his life.

本会注释　　也不是……也不是。这样的教训与当时犹太人普遍持有的观点截然相反（见第2节注释）。
　　显出。这句话经常被人理解为、或更准确地说，被人误解为是在教训说：瞎眼临到一个无辜的婴孩，就是为了等到三十八年后上帝可以显出祂的权能。本句中的“要”（希腊语作hina），经常引导目的状语从句，但还可以引导结果状语从句，比如路9:45；加5:17；帖前5:4；见@太1:22@注释。如果约9:3中的hina解释成表达一种结果，本节中的问题就不复存在了，这一节可以意译为：“也不是这人犯了罪，也不是他父母犯了罪：他受痛苦的结果，是上帝的作为在他身上显出来。”所以耶稣“没有说明那人受苦的原因，只告诉他们将要有的结果”（《历代愿望》471页）。对于爱上帝的人，上帝的一切作为，包括从仇敌而来的痛苦，都是为了他们的益处（罗8:28）。在上帝权能的掌管之下，仇敌所加给我们的痛苦也成了我们的益处。

约9:4 趁着白日，我们必须作那差我来者的工；黑夜将到，就没有人能做工了。 (串)约11:9罗13:12,13|约4:34

†[吕]还是白日，我们（有古卷作：我）必须作那差我者的工；黑夜一到，就没有人能作工了。

†[思]趁着白天，我们应该做派遣我来者的工作；黑夜来到，就没有人能工作了。

†[当代]我们也须趁著白天，赶快完成那差我来者的工作，因为时间不多，天一黑就不能工作了。

†[新译]趁着白昼，我们必须作那差我来者的工；黑夜一到，就没有人能作工了。

†[Wlb]时尚昼、我侪必行遣我者之行、夜至、则无人能行矣、

†[Xdv]趁着白天，我们必须做差我来那位的工作；黑夜一到，就没有人能工作。

†[Kjv]I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work.

†[Nkjv]I must work the works of Him who sent Me while it is day; the night is coming when no one can work.

†[BBE]While it is day we have to do the works of him who sent me: the night comes when no work may be done.

†[GNT] As long as it is day, we must do the work of him who sent me; night is coming when no one can work.

†[NIV]As long as it is day, we must do the work of him who sent me. Night is coming, when no one can work.

本会注释　　趁着白日。即做工的时间（诗104:23）。这个短语强调了时间的紧迫。《密西拿》有一个类似的比喻，拉比塔冯论到人生的白天说，“白天短暂，（要做的）工却很多；工人懒惰，报酬却很多；这家的主人心如火烧”（Aboth 2. 15，《塔木德》宋西诺版第24页）。
　　我们必须作……工。强调的是门徒在耶稣的工作上与祂联合。有文本为“我必须作工”
　　那差我来者的。这是约翰经常使用的一个短语（见约4:34；5:24；6:38等；见@约3:17@注释）。
　　黑夜将到。对耶稣来说黑夜已不远了（见约7:33）。祂短暂的“白日”就是祂在地上服务的时间；祂黑夜的到来就是祂离开这个世界的时候（见约9:5）。

约9:5 我在世上的时候，是世上的光。” (串)约1:4,5,9;8:12;12:35

†[吕]我在世界的时候，我乃是世界的光。”

†[思]当我在世界上的时候，我是世界的光。”

†[当代]我在世上的时候，就是世界上的光。”

†[新译]我在世上的时候，是世界的光。”

†[Wlb]我在世、乃世之光、

†[Xdv]我在世上的时候，我就是世上的光。”

†[Kjv]As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.

†[Nkjv]As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world."

†[BBE]As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.

†[GNT] While I am in the world, I am the light for the world."

†[NIV]While I am in the world, I am the light of the world."

本会注释　　我在世上的时候。这并不意味着耶稣只在祂寄居于世时是世界的光，祂永远是这世界的光。祂在这里特指祂作为“光”行走在世人中间能被他们看见的时候。希腊文里“光”前面没有冠词，也不专指代词“我”，如在“我是世界的光”（约8:12）中。关于这个比喻的意义，见@约1:4,5@注释；参《历代愿望》464，465页。

约9:6 耶稣说了这话，就吐唾沫在地上，用唾沫和泥抹在瞎子的眼睛上， (串)可7:33;8:23|太9:29

†[吕]说了这些话，就吐唾才在地上，用唾才和成泥，把泥铺在瞎子的眼睛上，

†[思]耶稣说了这话以后，便吐唾沫在地上，用唾沫和了些泥，把泥抹在瞎子的眼上，

†[当代]讲完了，耶稣就吐点唾沫在地上，用唾沫和著泥，抹在那瞎子的眼睛上，

†[新译]说了这话，就吐唾沫在地上，用唾沫和了一点泥，把泥抹在瞎子的眼睛上，

†[Wlb]言竟、则唾于地、以唾和泥、涂瞽者之目、

†[Xdv]说了这话，耶稣吐口水在地上，用口水和着泥，抹在盲人的眼睛上，

†[Kjv]When he had thus spoken, he spat on the ground, and made clay of the spittle, and he anointed the eyes of the blind man with the clay,

†[Nkjv]When He had said these things, He spat on the ground and made clay with the saliva; and He anointed the eyes of the blind man with the clay.

†[BBE]Having said these words, he put earth, mixed with water from his mouth, on the man's eyes,

†[GNT] After he said this, Jesus spat on the ground and made some mud with the spittle; he rubbed the mud on the man's eyes

†[NIV]Having said this, he spit on the ground, made some mud with the saliva, and put it on the man's eyes.

本会注释　　就吐唾沫在地上。古代人认为唾液中含有能治病的物质（例子见《他勒目》之宋西诺版Baba Bathra 126b，第526页）。然而，这种想象中的疗效并不是耶稣使用它的原因，除非是为了加强人们的信心。还有两次使用唾液施行神迹的例子（见@可7:33@注释；参可8:23）。
　　预备湿泥显然触犯了拉比们关于安息日的严格规定（见约9:14；见@约5:10,16；7:22-24@注释）。抟和、搅拌这种行为在安息日是特别被禁止的（见《密西拿》安息日Shabbath 7. 2，《塔木德》松奇诺版第349页）。比如，人可以将水倒在麦麸上给牲畜预备饲料，但决不能“搅拌它”（《密西拿》安息日 24. 3，《塔木德》松奇诺版第794页）。见@约5:16；9:16@注释。
　　抹在……眼睛上。这里耶稣同样干犯了拉比们的遗传，这种涂抹的行为在平常是允许的，但在安息日任何特殊的涂抹都是被禁止的（见上面“吐唾沫在地上”）。例如，古人用醋来缓解牙痛。但一个牙疼的人在安息日就不能将醋吸到牙齿之间，然而他却可以把醋放在饭里来达到缓解牙痛的目的（《密西拿》安息日 14.4，《塔木德》松奇诺版第539页）。

约9:7 对他说：“你往西罗亚池子里去洗（西罗亚翻出来就是奉差遣）。他去一洗，回头就看见了。 (串)尼3:15赛8:6路13:4|王下5:14

†[吕]对他说：“你去西罗亚池子里洗”［西罗亚才出来就是‘送出’的意思］。那人就去洗，回来便能看见了。

†[思]对他说：“去，到史罗亚水池洗洗罢！”──史罗亚解说“被派遣的”──瞎子去了，洗了，回来就看见了。

†[当代]对他说：“到西罗亚池去洗洗！”（西罗亚是被差派的意思。）那瞎子照著去做，回来的时候已经能看见了。

†[新译]对他说：“你去西罗亚池洗一洗吧。”（西罗亚就是“奉差遣”的意思。）于是他就去了，洗完了，走的时候，就看见了。

†[Wlb]谓之曰、往洗于西罗亚池、西罗亚译即奉遣也、其人往洗之、得见而反、

†[Xdv]并对他说：“你到西罗亚池子去洗吧。”（西罗亚的意思是“奉差遣”。）他就去洗，回来的时候，能看见了。

†[Kjv]And said unto him, Go, wash in the pool of Siloam, (which is by interpretation, Sent.) He went his way therefore, and washed, and came seeing.

†[Nkjv]And He said to him, "Go, wash in the pool of Siloam" (which is translated, Sent). So he went and washed, and came back seeing.

†[BBE]And said to him, Go and make yourself clean in the bath of Siloam (the sense of the name is, Sent). So he went away and, after washing, came back able to see.

†[GNT] and told him, "Go and wash your face in the Pool of Siloam." (This name means "Sent.") So the man went, washed his face, and came back seeing.

†[NIV]Go," he told him, "wash in the Pool of Siloam" (this word means Sent). So the man went and washed, and came home seeing.

本会注释　　西罗亚池。耶路撒冷南部的一个水池（见@赛8:6@注释；见本卷注释545页地图；约瑟弗斯《犹太战争史》4. 1,2 [136-141页]；9. 4 [409-411忒]。
　　西罗亚翻出来就是奉差遣。西罗亚是希伯来语Shiloach在希腊文中的音译，Shiloach源于动词shalach（“差遣”）。《约翰福音》的特色之一就是将希伯来文名称的含义写出来，供希腊语读者参考（见约1:38,42）。命令那人到西罗亚池中去洗，决不是因为那池水有任何医治之能，而是要试验那人的信心如何。将这里与王下5:10进行比较。

约9:8 他的邻舍和那素常见他是讨饭的，就说：“这不是那从前坐着讨饭的人吗？” (串)可10:46路16:20;18:35

†[吕]同乡们和那些先前常见他做要饭的就说：“这个人不是那常坐着要饭的么？”

†[思]于是，邻居和那些素来曾见他讨饭的人，就说：“这不是那曾坐着讨饭的人么？”

†[当代]他的邻居和惯常见他讨饭的人，都觉得很奇怪：“他不是那个常在这里讨饭的瞎子吗？”

†[新译]那时，邻居和以前常常见他讨饭的人说：“这不是那一向坐着讨饭的人吗？”

†[Wlb]邻人与素见其为乞者曰、此非坐而乞者乎、

†[Xdv]他的邻居和经常看见他在讨饭的人说：“这个人不是一向坐在这里讨饭的吗？”

†[Kjv]The neighbours therefore, and they which before had seen him that he was blind, said, Is not this he that sat and begged?

†[Nkjv]Therefore the neighbors and those who previously had seen that he was blind said, "Is not this he who sat and begged?"

†[BBE]Then the neighbours and others who had seen him before in the street, with his hand out for money, said, Is not this the man who got money from people?

†[GNT] His neighbors, then, and the people who had seen him begging before this, asked, "Isn't this the man who used to sit and beg?"

†[NIV]His neighbors and those who had formerly seen him begging asked, "Isn't this the same man who used to sit and beg?"

本会注释　　坐着讨饭。这是他的习惯。《密西拿》列举了几例乞丐讨饭时常说的话：“‘可怜我对你也是有益的’”（拉巴，利25:25节注释，第432页），“‘给我一些施舍吧’”（出处同上[131a]）。《塔木德》松奇诺版中有以下的话：“‘先生，’她向他说，‘给我一点钱吧’”（Kethuboth 66b，第405页）。
　　这不是那……人吗？希腊原文的结构表明指望肯定的回答。他们肯定这就是那人。

约9:9 有人说：“是他”；又有人说；“不是，却是象他。”他自己说：“是我。”

†[吕]另有人说“就是这个人”；又有人说；“不是，却很像他”。那人便说：“我就是”。

†[思]有的说：“就是这人。”有的说：“不，是另一个很相似他的人。”那人却说：“就是我。”

†[当代]“是他。”“不，不是他！只是长得像他。”“我就是那瞎子了。”

†[新译]有的说：“是他。”有的说：“不是他，只是像他。”他自己说：“是我。”

†[Wlb]或曰、然、或曰、否、似之耳、其人曰、我是也、

†[Xdv]有的说：“就是他；”也有的说：“不是他，只是像他罢了。”那个人自己说：“我就是他。”

†[Kjv]Some said, This is he: others said, He is like him: but he said, I am he.

†[Nkjv]Some said, "This is he." Others said, "He is like him." He said, "I am he."

†[BBE]Some said, It is he: others said, No, but he is like him. He said, I am he.

†[GNT] Some said, "He is the one," but others said, "No he isn't; he just looks like him." So the man himself said, "I am the man."

†[NIV]Some claimed that he was. Others said, "No, he only looks like him." But he himself insisted, "I am the man."

本会注释　　却是像他。那人的外貌无疑是大大改变了。他那明亮的双眼现在使他整个脸上容光焕发。众人对于这是不是他产生了剧烈的争论，但这人自己却给出了肯定的答案：“是我。”

约9:10 他们对他说：“你的眼睛是怎么开的呢？”

†[吕]于是他们对他说：“那你眼睛是怎么开的呢？”

†[思]他们问他说：“你的眼睛究竟是怎样开的呢？”

†[当代]“你现在怎么会看见呢？”

†[新译]他们就问他：“你的眼睛是怎样开的呢？”

†[Wlb]众曰、尔目何以启、

†[Xdv]他们问：“你的眼睛是怎样开的呢？”

†[Kjv]Therefore said they unto him, How were thine eyes opened?

†[Nkjv]Therefore they said to him, "How were your eyes opened?"

†[BBE]So they said to him, How then were your eyes made open?

†[GNT] "How is it that you can now see?" they asked him.

†[NIV]How then were your eyes opened?" they demanded.

本会注释　　你的眼睛是怎么开的呢。这是一个再正常不过的问题了。他的邻居们并不像后来法利赛人那样（第18节）置疑这个神迹的真实性。

约9:11 他回答说：“有一个人，名叫耶稣，他和泥抹我的眼睛，对我说：‘你往西罗亚池子去洗。’我去一洗，就看见了。” (串)本章6,7

†[吕]那人回答说：“那名叫耶稣的那个人和泥涂抹我的眼睛，对我说：‘你去西罗亚里面洗’；我就去，一洗便看得见了。”

†[思]他答覆说：“名叫耶稣的那个人，和了些泥，抹在我的眼上，给我说：你往史罗亚去洗洗罢；我去了，洗了，就看见了。”

†[当代]“有一位叫耶稣的人，用泥抹我的眼睛，叫我到西罗亚池子去洗。我照著去做，跟著就看见了。”

†[新译]他回答：“那名叫耶稣的人和了一点泥，抹在我的眼上，对我说：‘你去西罗亚池洗一洗吧。’我去一洗，就看见了。”

†[Wlb]曰、有耶稣者、和泥涂我目、令我洗于西罗亚池、我往洗之、即明矣、

†[Xdv]他回答：“一个名叫耶稣的，和了泥抹我的眼睛，对我说：‘你到西罗亚池子去洗。’我去，一洗就看见了。”

†[Kjv]He answered and said, A man that is called Jesus made clay, and anointed mine eyes, and said unto me, Go to the pool of Siloam, and wash: and I went and washed, and I received sight.

†[Nkjv]He answered and said, "A Man called Jesus made clay and anointed my eyes and said to me, "Go to the pool of Siloam and wash.' So I went and washed, and I received sight."

†[BBE]His answer was: The man who is named Jesus put earth mixed with water on my eyes, and said to me, Go and make yourself clean in Siloam: so I went away and, after washing, am now able to see.

†[GNT] He answered, "The man called Jesus made some mud, rubbed it on my eyes, and told me to go to Siloam and wash my face. So I went, and as soon as I washed, I could see."

†[NIV]He replied, "The man they call Jesus made some mud and put it on my eyes. He told me to go to Siloam and wash. So I went and washed, and then I could see."

本会注释　　名叫耶稣。显然耶稣只将自己的名字告诉了那人。他并不知道耶稣就是弥赛亚（见第35-38节）。他从未见过耶稣，因为当他去耶路撒冷南部的西罗亚池去洗时他还不能看见。

约9:12 他们说：“那个人在哪里？”他说：“我不知道。”

†[吕]他们对他说：“那人在哪里？”他说：“我不知道。”

†[思]他们又问他说：“那个人在那？”他说：“我不知道。”

†[当代]“那个人现今在哪里呢？”“我不知道。”

†[新译]他们说：“那人在哪里？”他说：“我不知道。”

†[Wlb]众曰、其人安在、曰、不知也、

†[Xdv]他们问：“那个人在哪里？”他回答：“我不知道。”

†[Kjv]Then said they unto him, Where is he? He said, I know not.

†[Nkjv]Then they said to him, "Where is He?" He said, "I do not know."

†[BBE]And they said to him, Where is he? His answer was: I have no knowledge.

†[GNT] "Where is he?" they asked. "I don't know," he answered.

†[NIV]Where is this man?" they asked him. "I don't know," he said.

本会注释　　那个人在哪里？众人想见这个神迹施行者的心情也是正常的。参约7:11。

约9:13 他们把从前瞎眼的人带到法利赛人那里。 (串)约11:46

†[吕]他们就把从前瞎眼的带到法利赛人那里。

†[思]他们便将先前瞎眼的人，领到法利塞人那。

†[当代]因为耶稣治好瞎子的那天是安息日，他们就把那个从前瞎眼的人带到法利赛人那里。

†[新译]他们就把那个从前瞎眼的人带到法利赛人那里。

†[Wlb]众引素瞽者诣法利赛人、

†[Xdv]他们带了那从前瞎眼的人去见法利赛人。

†[Kjv]They brought to the Pharisees him that aforetime was blind.

†[Nkjv]They brought him who formerly was blind to the Pharisees.

†[BBE]They took him before the Pharisees--this man who had been blind.

†[GNT] Then they took to the Pharisees the man who had been blind.

†[NIV]They brought to the Pharisees the man who had been blind.

本会注释　　约翰叙述这件事形象生动。人们把他带到法利赛人那去的原因并没有详述。也许他们认为医病这件事干犯了传统的安息日律法（见第6节注释），因此他们得出结论这件事需要法利赛人的过问。

约9:14 耶稣和泥开他眼睛的日子是安息日。 (串)约5:10

†[吕]耶稣和泥开他眼睛、那一天是安息日。

†[思]耶稣和泥开他眼睛的那天，正是安息日。

†[当代]－

†[新译]耶稣和了泥开他眼睛的那一天，正是安息日。

†[Wlb]耶稣和泥启其目之日、乃安息日也、

†[Xdv]耶稣和了泥开他眼睛的那一天是安息日。

†[Kjv]And it was the sabbath day when Jesus made the clay, and opened his eyes.

†[Nkjv]Now it was a Sabbath when Jesus made the clay and opened his eyes.

†[BBE]Now the day on which the earth was mixed by Jesus and the man's eyes were made open was the Sabbath.

†[GNT] The day that Jesus made the mud and cured him of his blindness was a Sabbath.

†[NIV]Now the day on which Jesus had made the mud and opened the man's eyes was a Sabbath.

本会注释　　安息日。既然那人的眼瞎不是急症，即他的生命没有处于危险之中，那么耶稣医治他就是干犯了犹太人遗传的律法（见@约7:22-24@注释）。这些律法还禁止和泥并用泥抹眼睛（见第6节注释）。
　　犹太人是所谓的维护律法的先锋。他们根本不明白安息日的目的和用意（见@可2:27,28@注释）。他们没有意识到这一天是为人类身、心、灵三方面的益处而分别为圣的。它的分别为圣并不是要禁止一切必要的、仁慈的工作，这些都是与它纪念创造的大工和谐一致的（见@创2:1-3@注释）。医治病人决不是破坏安息日的神圣律法。犹太人这样指责我们的主干犯安息日，表明他们对于自己所守律法的无知。
　　七件有记载的神迹全都发生在安息日（见本卷注释第205-207页第 3,5,6,9,27,28,29点）。

约9:15 法利赛人也问他是怎么得看见的。瞎子对他们说：“他把泥抹在我的眼睛上，我去一洗，就看见了。” (串)本章6,7,11

†[吕]于是又一次法利赛人也问那人是怎么得看见的。那人对他们说：“他把泥铺在我的眼睛上；我一洗，便能看见了。”

†[思]于是法利塞人又诘问他怎样看见了。那人就向他们说：“他把泥放在我的眼上，我洗了，就看见了。”

†[当代]法利赛人查问他怎么会看见，他便把事情从头到尾再说了一遍。

†[新译]法利赛人又问他是怎样可以看见的。他告诉他们：“耶稣把泥抹在我的眼上，我一洗就看见了。”

†[Wlb]法利赛人亦问其何以得明、对曰、彼置泥于我目、我洗而明也、

†[Xdv]法利赛人又一次盘问那个人是怎样得看见的。他告诉他们：“他用泥抹我的眼睛，我一洗就看见了。”

†[Kjv]Then again the Pharisees also asked him how he had received his sight. He said unto them, He put clay upon mine eyes, and I washed, and do see.

†[Nkjv]Then the Pharisees also asked him again how he had received his sight. He said to them, "He put clay on my eyes, and I washed, and I see."

†[BBE]So the Pharisees put more questions to him about how his eyes had been made open. And he said to them, He put earth on my eyes, and I had a wash and am able to see.

†[GNT] The Pharisees, then, asked the man again how he had received his sight. He told them, "He put some mud on my eyes; I washed my face, and now I can see."

†[NIV]Therefore the Pharisees also asked him how he had received his sight. "He put mud on my eyes," the man replied, "and I washed, and now I see."

本会注释　　法利赛人也问他。这些宗教领袖们询问此事的真相。他们并不否认这个神迹。那个被医治的人给出了一个既简短又有礼貌的回答。

约9:16 法利赛人中有的说：“这个人不是从上帝来的，因为他不守安息日。”又有人说：“一个罪人怎能行这样的神迹呢？”他们就起了纷争。 (串)约7:29|约3:2本章33|太12:2|约7:31|约7:43;10:19

†[吕]于是法利赛人中有的说：“这个人不是从上帝来的，因为他不守安息日。”另有人说：“一个有罪的人怎能行这样的神迹呢？”他们中间就起了分裂。

†[思]法利塞人中有的说：“这人不是从天主来的，因为他不遵守安息日。”有的却说：“一个罪人怎能行这样的奇迹？”他们中间便发生了纷争。

†[当代]有些法利赛人说：“那个人一定不是从上帝那里来的，因为祂不守安息日。”有些人却说：“如果祂是个罪人，又怎么会行这样奇妙的神迹呢？”于是他们就争论起来。

†[新译]有几个法利赛人说：“那个人不是从　神那里来的，因为他不守安息日。”另外有些人说：“一个罪人怎能行这样的神迹呢？”他们就起了纷争。

†[Wlb]法利赛人有曰、斯人不守安息日、非由上帝也、或曰、罪人何能行如是异迹乎、众遂分党、

†[Xdv]有些法利赛人说：“做这事的人不可能是从上帝那里来的，因为他不守安息日的戒律。”另有些人说：“一个有罪的人怎么能行这样的神迹呢？”他们就因此争论起来。

†[Kjv]Therefore said some of the Pharisees, This man is not of God, because he keepeth not the sabbath day. Others said, How can a man that is a sinner do such miracles? And there was a division among them.

†[Nkjv]Therefore some of the Pharisees said, "This Man is not from God, because He does not keep the Sabbath." Others said, "How can a man who is a sinner do such signs?" And there was a division among them.

†[BBE]Then some of the Pharisees said, That man has not come from God, for he does not keep the Sabbath. Others said, How is it possible for a sinner to do such signs? So there was a division among them.

†[GNT] Some of the Pharisees said, "The man who did this cannot be from God, for he does not obey the Sabbath law." Others, however, said, "How could a man who is a sinner perform such miracles as these?" And there was a division among them.

†[NIV]Some of the Pharisees said, "This man is not from God, for he does not keep the Sabbath." But others asked, "How can a sinner do such miraculous signs?" So they were divided.

本会注释　　上帝。法利赛人承认了这个神迹的真实性，但他们暗示行这个神迹的能力是来自那恶者的（见@太12:24@注释）。
　　不守安息日。这件医治的行为被认定违法是因为眼瞎是一种慢性病，不需要立即救治。他的生命没有处在危险之中（见第14节注释）。预备泥土并用泥抹眼也被认为是干犯了安息日的律法（见第6节注释）。
　　又有人说。在法利赛人中也有善良和明白道理的人，比如尼哥底母（约3:1-21；7:50,51）和约瑟（见@太27:57@注释）。
　　一个罪人。犹太人教训说，上帝只为那些配得的人施行神迹。《塔木德》里有这么一段有趣的讨论：“R.帕巴对阿贝耶说：先前世代的神迹是如何施行的呢？为什么神迹没有为我们施行呢？……当拉（比）犹大脱下一只鞋（准备禁食）时，雨就开始下了。现在我们折磨自己，大声哭泣，却没有丝毫的动静！阿贝耶回答说：过去世代的人随时准备为（上帝的）圣名牺牲性命；而我们却没有为（上帝的）圣名牺牲性命”（Berakoth20a，第119,120页）。参路7:4。

约9:17 他们又对瞎子说：“他既然开了你的眼睛，你说他是怎样的人呢？”他说：“是个先知。” (串)约4:19;6:14

†[吕]于是他们又对瞎子说：“他开了你的眼，你说他怎么样呢？”瞎子说：“他是个神言人。”

†[思]于是，他们又问瞎子说：“对于那开了你眼睛的人，你说什么呢？”瞎子说：“他是一位先知。”

†[当代]最后，他们问那个人说：“既然祂开了你的眼睛，你认为祂是什么人？”“祂是个先知。”

†[新译]他们再对瞎子说：“他既然开了你的眼睛，你说他是什么人？”他说：“他是个先知。”

†[Wlb]复谓瞽者曰、彼既启尔目、尔谓其为何如人、曰、先知也、

†[Xdv]于是，那些法利赛人再次盘问那个人：“既然他开了你的眼睛，你说他是怎样的人呢？”他回答：“他是一位先知。”

†[Kjv]They say unto the blind man again, What sayest thou of him, that he hath opened thine eyes? He said, He is a prophet.

†[Nkjv]They said to the blind man again, "What do you say about Him because He opened your eyes?" He said, "He is a prophet."

†[BBE]Again they said to the blind man, What have you to say about him for opening your eyes? And he said, He is a prophet.

†[GNT] So the Pharisees asked the man once more, "You say he cured you of your blindness - well, what do you say about him?" "He is a prophet," the man answered.

†[NIV]Finally they turned again to the blind man, "What have you to say about him? It was your eyes he opened." The man replied, "He is a prophet."

本会注释　　你说祂是怎样的人呢？这句话中的“你”是强调的。法利赛人中起了争论，他们用这个问题来掩盖他们之间的分歧。
　　是个先知。在希腊文里“先知”前面没有冠词。这个被医好的人并不像先前吃饼得饱的群众那样承认耶稣就是“那先知”（见@约6:14@注释；参见约1:21）。但他意识到耶稣绝非常人。他确信那使他眼睛得以看见的能力是出自上帝，故此那施行此能力的人必是上帝那里来的使者。他的见证与法利赛人的正好相反：“这个人不是从上帝来的”（约9:16）。

约9:18 犹太人不信他从前是瞎眼，后来能看见的，等到叫了他的父母来， (串)本章13|本章22,23

†[吕]关于瞎子的事、犹太人不信他从前瞎眼、后来看得见，直等到把那得看见的人的父母叫来，

†[思]可是犹太人不肯相信他先是瞎子而后看见了，等到叫了复明者的父母来，

†[当代]犹太人的领袖不相信他以前是瞎眼的，所以叫了他的父母来问个明白：

†[新译]犹太人不信他从前是瞎眼，现在才能看见的，于是把他的父母叫来，

†[Wlb]犹太人不信其素为瞽而复明、遂呼其父母、

†[Xdv]那些犹太人不相信他从前瞎眼，现在看得见；等到把他的父母找来，

†[Kjv]But the Jews did not believe concerning him, that he had been blind, and received his sight, until they called the parents of him that had received his sight.

†[Nkjv]But the Jews did not believe concerning him, that he had been blind and received his sight, until they called the parents of him who had received his sight.

†[BBE]Now the Jews had no belief in the statement that he had been blind and was now able to see, till they sent for the father and mother of the man whose eyes had been made open,

†[GNT] The Jewish authorities, however, were not willing to believe that he had been blind and could now see, until they called his parents

†[NIV]The Jews still did not believe that he had been blind and had received his sight until they sent for the man's parents.

本会注释　　不信。直到此时，这个神迹没有树到质疑。但是犹太人却不得不面对矛盾的情况：一个拥有如此大医治之能、明显是来自于上帝的人怎么能算是干犯安息日呢？于是他们就推测这个神迹是假的。他们想要寻得一个解决的办法并决意要盘问那人的父母。

约9:19 问他们说：“这是你们的儿子吗？你们说他生来是瞎眼的，如今怎么能看见了呢？”

†[吕]问他们说：“这是不是你们的儿子、你们所说生来就是瞎眼的呢？那么、他现在怎能看见呢？”

†[思]问他们说：“这是你们的儿子么？你们说他生来就瞎么？怎么他现在竟看见了呢？”

†[当代]“这是你们的儿子吗？你们不是说他生来就瞎的吗？怎么现在又看得见呢？”

†[新译]问他们：“这是你们所说那生下来就瞎眼的儿子吗？现在他怎么又能看见呢？”

†[Wlb]问曰、此乃尔子、尔言生而瞽者乎、今何以得见耶、

†[Xdv]他们问：“这个人是你们的儿子吗？你们不是说他生下来就瞎了眼？那么，现在又怎么会看见呢？”

†[Kjv]And they asked them, saying, Is this your son, who ye say was born blind? how then doth he now see?

†[Nkjv]And they asked them, saying, "Is this your son, who you say was born blind? How then does he now see?"

†[BBE]And put the question to them, saying, Is this your son, of whom you say that he was blind at birth? how is it then that he is now able to see?

†[GNT] and asked them, "Is this your son? You say that he was born blind; how is it, then, that he can now see?"

†[NIV]Is this your son?" they asked. "Is this the one you say was born blind? How is it that now he can see?"

本会注释　　这是你们的儿子吗？这里有三个问题，犹太人想用这些话来迷惑那人的父母：这是你们的儿子吗？你们说他生来就是瞎的吗？你们怎么解释他现在能看见呢？

约9:20 他父母回答说：“他是我们的儿子，生来就瞎眼，这是我们知道的。

†[吕]他父母就回答说：“我们知道这是我们的儿子，又是生来就瞎眼的。

†[思]他的父母答覆说：“我们知道这是我们的儿子，也生来就瞎。

†[当代]他的父母说：“他是我们的儿子，我们知道他生来就是瞎的；

†[新译]他的父母回答：“我们知道他是我们的儿子，生下来就瞎眼；

†[Wlb]其父母曰、彼为我子、生而瞽者、我所知也、

†[Xdv]他的父母回答：“他是我们的儿子，他生下来就是瞎眼的，这个我们知道。

†[Kjv]His parents answered them and said, We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind:

†[Nkjv]His parents answered them and said, "We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind;

†[BBE]In answer his father and mother said, We are certain that this is our son and that he was blind at birth:

†[GNT] His parents answered, "We know that he is our son, and we know that he was born blind.

†[NIV]We know he is our son," the parents answered, "and we know he was born blind.

本会注释　　生来就瞎眼。这是犹太人希望否定的一个事实。他们想要掩盖那个神迹的企图失败了。

约9:21 至于他如今怎么能看见，我们却不知道；是谁开了他的眼睛，我们也不知道。他已经成了人，你们问他吧，他自己必能说。”

†[吕]至于他如今怎么能看见，我们却不知道；谁开了他的眼、我们也不知道；你们问他吧，他已经成年了，他自己会说他自己的事的。”

†[思]如今他究竟怎么看见了，我们却不知道；或者谁开了他的眼睛，我们也不知道。你们问他罢！他已经成年，会说自己的事了。”

†[当代]至于他现在怎么会看得见，我们就不知道了。是谁医好他，我们也不知道。他现在已经长大成人，你们可以去问他吧。”

†[新译]现在他是怎样可以看见的，我们不知道；谁开了他的眼睛，我们也不知道。你们问他吧；他已经长大成人，可以替自己讲话了。”

†[Wlb]但今何以得见、我则不知、谁启其目、我亦不知、彼长矣、可问之、将自言也、

†[Xdv]至于他现在怎么会看见，是谁开了他的眼睛，我们都不知道。他已经成人了，你们去问他吧，让他自己回答你们！”

†[Kjv]But by what means he now seeth, we know not; or who hath opened his eyes, we know not: he is of age; ask him: he shall speak for himself.

†[Nkjv]but by what means he now sees we do not know, or who opened his eyes we do not know. He is of age; ask him. He will speak for himself."

†[BBE]But how it is he is now able to see, or who made his eyes open, we are not able to say: put the question to him; he is old enough to give an answer for himself.

†[GNT] But we do not know how it is that he is now able to see, nor do we know who cured him of his blindness. Ask him; he is old enough, and he can answer for himself!"

†[NIV]But how he can see now, or who opened his eyes, we don't know. Ask him. He is of age; he will speak for himself."

本会注释　　我们却不知道。这是一句谎话或者至少是推脱真相。他们儿子的眼睛被泥涂抹或去到池子中洗时他们好像并不在场，因此不能作证。但他们其实早从邻居那里听到自己的儿子得了医治并了解了全部情况（见第22节）。
　　他已经成了人。犹太人规定成年的岁数是十三，女孩还要早一年。因此这个被治好的人一定是超过十三岁了，但到底多大，也只是推测而已。第1节只是说他是“一个人”（anthrōpos），人类家庭的一员。

约9:22 他父母说这话，是怕犹太人；因为犹太人已经商议定了，若有认耶稣是基督的，要把他赶出会堂。 (串)约7:13;19:38|罗10:9,10|本章34约12:42;16:2

†[吕]他父母说这些话，是因为怕犹太人；因为犹太人已经约定了、若有人承认耶稣为基督，就该从会堂里被革除。

†[思]他的父母因为害怕犹太人，才这样说，因为犹太人早已议定：谁若承诺耶稣是默西亚，就必被逐出会堂。

†[当代]原来那些犹太人的领袖事先早就议定，谁承认耶稣是救主基督，就革除谁的教籍。

†[新译]他的父母这样说，是因为怕犹太人，原来犹太人已经定好了，不论谁承认耶稣是基督，就要把那人赶出会堂。

†[Wlb]父母言此、惧犹太人也、因犹太人约定、有认耶稣为基督者、必出之于会堂、

†[Xdv]他的父母这样说是因为怕犹太人；当时犹太人已经商妥，如果有人承认耶稣是基督，就要把他赶出会堂。

†[Kjv]These words spake his parents, because they feared the Jews: for the Jews had agreed already, that if any man did confess that he was Christ, he should be put out of the synagogue.

†[Nkjv]His parents said these things because they feared the Jews, for the Jews had agreed already that if anyone confessed that He was Christ, he would be put out of the synagogue.

†[BBE]They said this because of their fear of the Jews: for the Jews had come to an agreement that if any man said that Jesus was the Christ he would be put out of the Synagogue.

†[GNT] His parents said this because they were afraid of the Jewish authorities, who had already agreed that anyone who said he believed that Jesus was the Messiah would be expelled from the synagogue.

†[NIV]His parents said this because they were afraid of the Jews, for already the Jews had decided that anyone who acknowledged that Jesus was the Christ would be put out of the synagogue.

本会注释　　怕犹太人。这句话证实了那人的父母了解他们儿子得医治的情况（见第21节注释）。害怕被赶出会堂导致他们遮掩真相。
　　耶稣是基督。基督的意思就是弥赛亚（见@太1:1@注释；参@约1:41@注释）。说耶稣是基督就等于承认相信祂是预言所指的弥赛亚。许多犹太人（见约7:41）甚至官长（约7:50,51；见16节注释）都暗地里相信耶稣的确是上帝差来的那一位。
　　赶出会堂。无疑是指犹太人规定的30-天禁令，适用于某些特定的案件，比如说对掌权者的毁谤性言辞（见《密西拿》`Eduyyoth 5. 6，《塔木德》松奇诺版第34,35页；《塔木德》松奇诺版Nedarim 50b，第158页；Mo`ed,Katan16a，第98页；Kiddushin70a，第354,355页）。关于这种禁令，见斯特拉克和比勒贝克，《新约注释》卷四第293-333页。

约9:23 因此他父母说：“他已经成了人，你们问他吧。” (串)本章21

†[吕]故此他父母说：“他已经成年了，你们问他吧。”

†[思]为此，他的父母说：他己经成年，你们问他罢！

†[当代]那人的父母因为害怕他们，所以才说他已经长大成人，叫他们去问他。

†[新译]因此他的父母说：“他已经长大成人，你们问他吧。”

†[Wlb]故其父母曰、彼长矣、可问之、

†[Xdv]因此他的父母回答：“他已经成人了，你们去问他吧！”

†[Kjv]Therefore said his parents, He is of age; ask him.

†[Nkjv]Therefore his parents said, "He is of age; ask him."

†[BBE]That was the reason why they said, He is old enough; put the question to him.

†[GNT] That is why his parents said, "He is old enough; ask him!"

†[NIV]That was why his parents said, "He is of age; ask him."

本会注释　　成了人。见第21节注释。

约9:24 所以法利赛人第二次叫了那从前瞎眼的人来，对他说：“你该将荣耀归给上帝，我们知道这人是个罪人。” (串)书7:19撒上6:5赛42:12耶13:16路17:18徒12:23|本章16

†[吕]于是他们第二次把从前瞎眼的人叫来，对他说：“你把荣耀归与上帝，向他承认吧！我们知道这个人是个罪人。”

†[思]于是法利塞人再把那先前瞎眼的人叫过来，向他说：“归光荣于天主罢！我们知道这人是个罪人。”

†[当代]法利赛人又把那个从前是瞎眼的人叫来，命令他说：“你应该把荣耀归给上帝，不该归给耶稣！祂是个罪人。”

†[新译]于是法利赛人第二次把那从前瞎眼的人叫来，对他说：“你应当归荣耀给　神，我们知道这人是个罪人。”

†[Wlb]其曹又呼素瞽者曰、尔宜归荣上帝、我知斯人乃罪人也、

†[Xdv]他们再一次把那生下来就瞎了眼的叫来，对他说：“你必须在上帝面前说诚实话！我们知道耶稣是一个罪人。”

†[Kjv]Then again called they the man that was blind, and said unto him, Give God the praise: we know that this man is a sinner.

†[Nkjv]So they again called the man who was blind, and said to him, "Give God the glory! We know that this Man is a sinner."

†[BBE]So they sent a second time for the man who had been blind and they said to him, Give glory to God: it is clear to us that this man is a sinner.

†[GNT] A second time they called back the man who had been born blind, and said to him, "Promise before God that you will tell the truth! We know that this man who cured you is a sinner."

†[NIV]A second time they summoned the man who had been blind. "Give glory to God, " they said. "We know this man is a sinner."

本会注释　　将荣耀归给上帝。这是一句套话，要求对方采取适当的行动，归荣耀给上帝。上下文表明所期待的行动。在亚干的案例中，这句话是要他认罪（书7:19）。现在的这个要求暗示被医好之人的言语和行动没有将荣耀归给上帝。犹太人想要让他收回是耶稣医好他的声明，而改口为是上帝医治了他。
　　罪人。即根据犹太人的规定，耶稣干犯了安息日（见第14节注释）。

约9:25 他说：“他是个罪人不是，我不知道；有一件事我知道，从前我是眼瞎的，如今能看见了。” (串)本章13,18,24

†[吕]那人就回答说：“他是不是个罪人，我倒不知道；我只知道一件事：我本来瞎眼，现在我能看见了。”

†[思]那人回答说：“他是不是罪人，我不知道；有一件事我知道：我曾是个瞎子，现在我却看见了。”

†[当代]“祂是不是罪人，我不知道，我只知道从前我是瞎眼的，现在能看见了。”

†[新译]那人回答：“他是不是个罪人，我不知道；我只知道一件事，就是我本来是瞎眼的，现在能看见了。”

†[Wlb]曰、其为罪人与否、我不知也、惟知一事、即我昔瞽今见耳、

†[Xdv]他回答：“他是不是罪人，我不知道；不过我知道一件事：我从前瞎眼，现在能看见了。”

†[Kjv]He answered and said, Whether he be a sinner or no, I know not: one thing I know, that, whereas I was blind, now I see.

†[Nkjv]He answered and said, "Whether He is a sinner or not I do not know. One thing I know: that though I was blind, now I see."

†[BBE]He said in answer, I have no knowledge if he is a sinner or not, but one thing I am certain about; I was blind, and now I see.

†[GNT] "I do not know if he is a sinner or not," the man replied. "One thing I do know: I was blind, and now I see."

†[NIV]He replied, "Whether he is a sinner or not, I don't know. One thing I do know. I was blind but now I see!"

本会注释　　我不知道。他并不像犹太人那样肯定。犹太人宣称他们“知道”（第24节）。然而，一方面他们无法提供充足的证据，另一方面他们也无法解释自己心中的矛盾，即，耶稣若真是个罪人，那祂怎能行这样的神迹呢（第16节）。
　　有一件事我知道。那个被医好的人显得特别聪明。他拒绝用模棱两可的话说耶稣是否是个罪人，他只将自己的证言建立在无可辩驳的事实基础之上。

约9:26 他们就问他说：“他向你做什么？是怎么开了你的眼睛呢？”

†[吕]于是他们对他说：“他向你作了什么？怎么开了你的眼呢？”

†[思]他们又问他说：“他给你作了什么？怎样开了你的眼睛？”

†[当代]“祂向你做了些什么？祂是怎样医好你的眼睛的？”

†[新译]他们就问：“他向你作了什么呢？他怎样开了你的眼睛呢？”

†[Wlb]众问之曰、彼于尔何为、如何启尔目、

†[Xdv]他们问：“他替你做了什么？他怎样开了你的眼睛？”

†[Kjv]Then said they to him again, What did he to thee? how opened he thine eyes?

†[Nkjv]Then they said to him again, "What did He do to you? How did He open your eyes?"

†[BBE]Then they said to him, What did he do to you? how did he give you the use of your eyes?

†[GNT] "What did he do to you?" they asked. "How did he cure you of your blindness?"

†[NIV]Then they asked him, "What did he do to you? How did he open your eyes?"

本会注释　　祂向你作什么？犹太人进一步的盘问显然是想迷惑那刚被医好的人，他们盼着能在他的话中找到一些错误和自相矛盾的地方。

约9:27 他回答说：“我方才告诉你们，你们不听，为什么又要听呢？莫非你们也要作他的门徒吗？”

†[吕]他回答他们说：“我已经告诉了你们，你们不听；为什么又想要听呢？莫非你们也想要做他的门徒么？”

†[思]他回答说：“我已经告诉了你们，你们不听；为什么又愿意听呢？莫非你们也愿意做他的门徒么？”

†[当代]“我不是告诉了你们吗？刚才你们不听，现在又问，难道你们也想作祂的门徒吗？”

†[新译]他回答：“我已经告诉你们，但是你们不听；为什么现在又想听呢？你们也想成为他的门徒吗？”

†[Wlb]曰、我已告尔、尔弗听、何复欲听之、尔亦欲为其徒乎、

†[Xdv]他回答：“我已经告诉你们了，你们不肯听。为什么现在又要听呢？难道你们也想作他的门徒吗？”

†[Kjv]He answered them, I have told you already, and ye did not hear: wherefore would ye hear it again? will ye also be his disciples?

†[Nkjv]He answered them, "I told you already, and you did not listen. Why do you want to hear it again? Do you also want to become His disciples?"

†[BBE]His answer was: I have said it before, but your ears were shut: why would you have me say it again? is it your desire to become his disciples?

†[GNT] "I have already told you," he answered, "and you would not listen. Why do you want to hear it again? Maybe you, too, would like to be his disciples?"

†[NIV]He answered, "I have told you already and you did not listen. Why do you want to hear it again? Do you want to become his disciples, too?"

本会注释　　不听。即，法利赛人不接受那人的见证。
　　作祂的门徒。希腊原文的结构表明期待否定的回答。圣灵使这未受过教育的人做出如此勇敢的辩护（见@太10:19@注释）。

约9:28 他们就骂他说：“你是他的门徒；我们是摩西的门徒。 (串)约5:45

†[吕]他们就辱骂他说：“你、是那个人的门徒，我们、乃是摩西的门徒。

†[思]他们辱骂他说：“你去做他的门徒好了！我们是梅瑟的门徒。

†[当代]“你才是祂的门徒！我们是跟摩西的。

†[新译]他们就骂他，说：“你才是他的门徒，我们是摩西的门徒。

†[Wlb]众诟之曰、尔乃其徒、我侪摩西徒也、

†[Xdv]他们辱他：“你才是那个家伙的门徒；我们是摩西的门徒。

†[Kjv]Then they reviled him, and said, Thou art his disciple; but we are Moses' disciples.

†[Nkjv]Then they reviled him and said, "You are His disciple, but we are Moses' disciples.

†[BBE]And they were angry with him and said, You are his disciple, but we are disciples of Moses.

†[GNT] They insulted him and said, "You are that fellow's disciple; but we are Moses' disciples.

†[NIV]Then they hurled insults at him and said, "You are this fellow's disciple! We are disciples of Moses!

本会注释　　摩西的门徒。这不是一个常用的名称，它出现在《塔木德》中，指法利赛派的学者（Yoma4a，第12页）。摩西的门徒与耶稣的门徒相对比。《密西拿》中还有一个类似的对比：亚伯拉罕的门徒和巴兰的门徒；这里巴兰的门徒指基督徒（Aboth 5. 19，《塔木德》宋西诺版第72,73页）。

约9:29 上帝对摩西说话是我们知道的；只是这个人，我们不知道他从哪里来！” (串)民12:2-8|约7:27;8:14

†[吕]上帝知道上帝对摩西说过话；只是这个人呢、我们不知道他是从哪里来的阿。”

†[思]我们知道：天主曾给梅瑟说过话；至于这人，我们不知道他是从那来的。”

†[当代]我们知道上帝曾对摩西讲话，至于这个人从哪里来，我们却不知道。”

†[新译]我们知道　神曾对摩西说话；只是这个人，我们不知道他从哪里来。”

†[Wlb]上帝谕摩西、我侪知之、但不知斯人奚自、

†[Xdv]我们知道上帝对摩西说过话；至于那家伙，我们根本不知道他是哪里来的！”

†[Kjv]We know that God spake unto Moses: as for this fellow, we know not from whence he is.

†[Nkjv]We know that God spoke to Moses; as for this fellow, we do not know where He is from."

†[BBE]We are certain that God gave his word to Moses: but as for this man, we have no knowledge where he comes from.

†[GNT] We know that God spoke to Moses; as for that fellow, however, we do not even know where he comes from!"

†[NIV]We know that God spoke to Moses, but as for this fellow, we don't even know where he comes from."

本会注释　　上帝对摩西说话。这句话曾多次在《旧约》中出现（利4:1；6:1；8:1等；参出33:11；来1:1）。
　　我们不知道。他们中间有些人曾声称知道耶稣从哪里来（约7:27）。耶稣曾明确地告诉犹太人祂是从上帝那里来的（约8:42），但他们就是不相信祂的见证。

约9:30 那人回答说：“他开了我的眼睛，你们竟不知道他从哪里来，这真是奇怪！

†[吕]那人回答他们说：“可希奇的就在这一点了！他开了我的眼，你们竟不知道他是从哪里来的！

†[思]那人回答说：“这真奇怪！你们不知道他是从那来的，他却开了我的眼睛。

†[当代]那个人反驳说：“祂开了我的眼睛，你们竟不知道祂从哪里来，真是奇怪。

†[新译]那人对他们说：“这就奇怪了，他开了我的眼睛，你们竟然不知道他从哪里来。

†[Wlb]曰、斯亦奇矣、彼启我目、而尔不知其奚自耶、

†[Xdv]他回答：“这就怪了。他开了我的眼睛，你们却不知道他是从哪里来的！

†[Kjv]The man answered and said unto them, Why herein is a marvellous thing, that ye know not from whence he is, and yet he hath opened mine eyes.

†[Nkjv]The man answered and said to them, "Why, this is a marvelous thing, that you do not know where He is from; yet He has opened my eyes!

†[BBE]The man said in answer, Why, here is a strange thing! You have no knowledge where he comes from though he gave me the use of my eyes.

†[GNT] The man answered, "What a strange thing that is! You do not know where he comes from, but he cured me of my blindness!

†[NIV]The man answered, "Now that is remarkable! You don't know where he comes from, yet he opened my eyes.

本会注释　　这真是奇怪。那些宗教领袖应该很清楚，能行这样神迹的人只有耶稣。祂在他们中间积极工作已达三年之久。许多的证据赐下来能激起他们的信心，但他们却用自己的本性抵挡这证据。他们故意选择无知，因此他们当下的出丑完全是咎由自取。

约9:31 我们知道上帝不听罪人，惟有敬奉上帝、遵行他旨意的，上帝才听他。 (串)伯35:13诗66:18赛1:15耶11:11;14:12结8:18亚7:13|诗34:15;145:19箴15:29

†[吕]我们知道上帝不听有罪的人；但若有人是敬拜上帝的，又遵行他的旨意，上帝才听他。

†[思]我们都晓得天主不俯听罪人，只俯听那恭敬天主，并承行他旨意的人。

†[当代]我们知道上帝不会应允罪人的祷告；那些敬拜祂而且遵行祂旨意的人的祷告，祂才答应。

†[新译]我们知道　神不听罪人的祈求，只听那敬畏　神，遵行他旨意的人。

†[Wlb]我知上帝不听罪人、惟崇拜上帝而行其旨者、乃听之、

†[Xdv]我们知道上帝不听罪人的祈求；他只垂听那敬拜他，并实行他旨意的人。

†[Kjv]Now we know that God heareth not sinners: but if any man be a worshipper of God, and doeth his will, him he heareth.

†[Nkjv]Now we know that God does not hear sinners; but if anyone is a worshiper of God and does His will, He hears him.

†[BBE]We have knowledge that God does not give ear to sinners, but if any man is a worshipper of God and does his pleasure, to him God's ears are open.

†[GNT] We know that God does not listen to sinners; he does listen to people who respect him and do what he wants them to do.

†[NIV]We know that God does not listen to sinners. He listens to the godly man who does his will.

本会注释　　上帝不听罪人。这人的话至少和法利赛人不同意见（见第16节注释）中的一方是吻合的。那被医治之人的推论是不能被驳倒的。如果，像有些法利赛人所认为的那样，上帝只为那些配得的人行神迹，那他们就不得不承认这个神迹的施行者一定是上帝，特别是考虑到这个神迹不一般的性质（第32节）。
　　“上帝不听罪人”句话对于那些故意不悔改的罪人来说当然是真的。但上帝却总是倾听那些痛悔前非之人恳求赦免和怜悯的祈祷（见@路18:13@注释）。祂也经常倾听那些偏离义路之人的祷告，对于那些迷失的人祂决不轻易放弃。祂不断地继续赐福来引导他们回转。基于这个事实，“上帝不听罪人”这句话并不总是正确的。上帝垂听人的祷告并不一定意味着祂赞同此人的全部行为。一个人有了他的祷告蒙垂听的显著证据后，也不应欣欣然觉得自己已经称义或完全得蒙悦纳；他应该殷勤省察自己的内心好使自己更加合乎那神圣的模范。他决不应将上帝的赐福看作自己全部行为得到承认的证据。任何对已知之罪的故意留恋，都将致使罪人最终与上帝不可避免的分离（启22:11）。
　　遵行祂旨意。将这里与约壹3:22进行比较；《拾级就主》第十一章。

约9:32 从创世以来，未曾听见有人把生来是瞎子的眼睛开了。 (串)约10:21

†[吕]从今世之初以来，没听说过有人开了生来瞎眼者的眼睛阿。

†[思]自古以来从未听说：有人开了生来就是瞎子的眼睛。

†[当代]从创世以来，从没有听过有人能把生来就瞎的人医好。

†[新译]自古以来，没有人听过生下来就是瞎眼的，有人可以开他们的眼睛。

†[Wlb]伊古以来、未闻有启生而瞽者之目也、

†[Xdv]从创世以来，未曾听见有人开了生来就是盲人的眼睛的。

†[Kjv]Since the world began was it not heard that any man opened the eyes of one that was born blind.

†[Nkjv]Since the world began it has been unheard of that anyone opened the eyes of one who was born blind.

†[BBE]In all the years nobody has ever before seen the eyes of a man blind from birth made open.

†[GNT] Since the beginning of the world nobody has ever heard of anyone giving sight to a person born blind.

†[NIV]Nobody has ever heard of opening the eyes of a man born blind.

本会注释　　从创世以来。这个短语的意思和“从未”是一样的。历史上从来没有过天生的瞎子被治好的记录。

约9:33 这人若不是从上帝来的，什么也不能做。” (串)约3:2本章16

†[吕]这人若不是从上帝来的，他就不能作什么了。”

†[思]这人若不是由天主来的，他什么也不能做。”

†[当代]如果这个人不是从上帝那里来的，又怎能做得到呢？”

†[新译]这人若不是从　神那里来的，他就不能作什么。”

†[Wlb]斯人若非由上帝、则无能为也、

†[Xdv]除非他是从上帝那里来的，他什么都不能做。”

†[Kjv]If this man were not of God, he could do nothing.

†[Nkjv]If this Man were not from God, He could do nothing."

†[BBE]If this man did not come from God he would be unable to do anything.

†[GNT] Unless this man came from God, he would not be able to do a thing."

†[NIV]If this man were not from God, he could do nothing."

本会注释　　什么也不能作。有些法利赛人曾经提出过这一点（第16节）。尼哥底母也曾承认过这一点（约3:2）。那被医好的人获得了完全的胜利。他的逻辑无可辩驳。法利赛人顿时瞠目结舌哑口无言，他们既无言以对，便要采取恐吓谩骂的手段了。

约9:34 他们回答说：“你全然生在罪孽中，还要教训我们吗？”于是把他赶出去了。 (串)本章2|本章22

†[吕]他们回答他说：“你、你全然生于罪中，还来教训我们么？”就革除他。

†[思]他们却向他说：“你整个生于罪恶中，竟来教训我们？”便把他赶了出去了。

†[当代]法利赛人听了这段话以后，就厉声骂他说：“你本来就是罪人，凭什么教训我们？”跟著就把他赶了出去。

†[新译]他们说：“你的确是在罪中生的，还敢教训我们吗？”就把他赶出去。

†[Wlb]众曰、尔通体生于罪中、反教我乎、遂逐之、

†[Xdv]他们斥责他：“你这生长在罪中的家伙，居然教训起我们来！”于是他们把他从会堂里赶出去。

†[Kjv]They answered and said unto him, Thou wast altogether born in sins, and dost thou teach us? And they cast him out.

†[Nkjv]They answered and said to him, "You were completely born in sins, and are you teaching us?" And they cast him out.

†[BBE]Their answer was: You came to birth through sin; do you make yourself our teacher? And they put him out of the Synagogue.

†[GNT] They answered, "You were born and brought up in sin - and you are trying to teach us?" And they expelled him from the synagogue.

†[NIV]To this they replied, "You were steeped in sin at birth; how dare you lecture us!" And they threw him out.

本会注释　　生在罪孽中。法利赛人说那人过去的痛苦是他特殊罪恶的标记，他们或许是在暗示他出生之前就有罪恶（见第2节注释）。
　　把他赶出去。这里应验了第22节所提到的威胁（见第22节注释）。

约9:35 耶稣听说他们把他赶出去，后来遇见他，就说：“你信上帝的儿子吗？” (串)太14:33;16:16约10:36约壹5:13

†[吕]耶稣听说他们把瞎子革除了。遇见了他、就说：“你信人子（有古卷作：上帝的儿子）么？”

†[思]耶稣听说他们把他赶出去了，后来遇见了他，就给他说：“你信人子么？”

†[当代]耶稣知道了这件事，后来又遇见了这个人，就对他说：“你相信上帝的儿子吗？”

†[新译]耶稣听见他们把他赶出去，后来遇见他的时候，就对他说：“你信人子吗？”

†[Wlb]耶稣闻其见逐、遇之、曰、尔信上帝子乎、

†[Xdv]耶稣听见他们把他赶出会堂。以后耶稣找到他，对他说：“你信人子吗？”

†[Kjv]Jesus heard that they had cast him out; and when he had found him, he said unto him, Dost thou believe on the Son of God?

†[Nkjv]Jesus heard that they had cast him out; and when He had found him, He said to him, "Do you believe in the Son of God?"

†[BBE]It came to the ears of Jesus that they had put him out, and meeting him he said, Have you faith in the Son of man?

†[GNT] When Jesus heard what had happened, he found the man and asked him, "Do you believe in the Son of Man?"

†[NIV]Jesus heard that they had thrown him out, and when he found him, he said, "Do you believe in the Son of Man?"

本会注释　　后来遇见他。以色列的牧人们将迷失的羊赶出，而好牧人却将他找到（约10:11；见@路15:1-7@注释）。耶稣离那些积极接受上帝感召的人从来就不远（罗10:8,9）。
　　上帝的儿子。这是承认信心的通常用语（见约1:49；11:27；参太16:16；约1:34；20:31）。它与那被治好之人在法利赛人面前所作的见证（约9:30-33）更加一致。有文本为“人子”。“人子”的称号（见@太1:1@；@可2:10@注释）更加强调耶稣的人性，不太适合这里的意思。

约9:36 他回答说：“主啊，谁是上帝的儿子，叫我信他呢？” (串)罗10:14

†[吕]那人回答说：“主阿，谁是人子，让我信他呀？”

†[思]那人便回答说：“主，是谁，好使我去信他呢？”

†[当代]“先生，谁是上帝的儿子？让我也可以去信祂。”

†[新译]他说：“先生，谁是人子，好让我信他呢？”

†[Wlb]曰、主、彼为谁、俾我信之、

†[Xdv]他回答：“先生，请告诉我他是谁，好让我信他！”

†[Kjv]He answered and said, Who is he, Lord, that I might believe on him?

†[Nkjv]He answered and said, "Who is He, Lord, that I may believe in Him?"

†[BBE]He said in answer, And who is he, Lord? Say, so that I may have faith in him.

†[GNT] The man answered, "Tell me who he is, sir, so that I can believe in him!"

†[NIV]Who is he, sir?" the man asked. "Tell me so that I may believe in him."

本会注释　　谁是上帝的儿子。那个被治好的人此前从没有见过耶稣。当主打发他到西罗亚池去洗的时候他还是个瞎子。他生来眼瞎，此前他从未见过任何人的面孔。当他注视着他父母和熟人的面容时他的内心是多么激动和兴奋啊！现在他看到了耶稣那慈祥可爱的面容，这和那些假冒为善的法利赛人眉头紧皱、布满阴云的脸孔相比是何等大的反差啊！耶稣说话的声音使他相信这就是那治好他的一位。
　　主啊。kurios，这里可能一种尊称，相当于“先生”。
　　叫我信祂呢？他已经准备相信弥赛亚，现在他感觉这个自己已经认为是先知的人（第17节）可以告诉他谁是弥赛亚。

约9:37 耶稣说：“你已经看见他，现在和你说话的就是他。” (串)约4:26

†[吕]耶稣对他说：“你已经看见他，这同你说话的就是阿。

†[思]耶稣对他说：“你已看见他了，和你讲话的就是！”

†[当代]“你已经看见祂了。现在跟你说话的就是祂。”

†[新译]耶稣说：“你已经见过他，现在跟你说话的就是他。”

†[Wlb]耶稣曰、尔已见之、与尔言者是也、

†[Xdv]耶稣对他说：“你已经见到了他，现在跟你讲话的就是他。”

†[Kjv]And Jesus said unto him, Thou hast both seen him, and it is he that talketh with thee.

†[Nkjv]And Jesus said to him, "You have both seen Him and it is He who is talking with you."

†[BBE]Jesus said to him, You have seen him; it is he who is talking to you.

†[GNT] Jesus said to him, "You have already seen him, and he is the one who is talking with you now."

†[NIV]Jesus said, "You have now seen him; in fact, he is the one speaking with you."

本会注释　　你已经看见祂。这句话不是指原来那次遇见，而是指现在。他所看见的耶稣是有些眼明之人终其一生也没有看见的。最大的盲目莫过于那些不愿去看的人！参约6:36中犹太人的态度。

约9:38 他说：“主啊，我信！”就拜耶稣。

†[吕]他说：“主阿，我信”；就伏地拜耶稣。

†[思]他遂说道：“主，我信。”遂俯伏朝拜了耶稣。

†[当代]“主啊！我信！”他连忙拜耶稣。

†[新译]那人说：“主啊，我信。”就向他下拜。

†[Wlb]曰、主、我信矣、遂拜之、

†[Xdv]他说：“主啊，我信！”就向耶稣下拜。

†[Kjv]And he said, Lord, I believe. And he worshipped him.

†[Nkjv]Then he said, "Lord, I believe!" And he worshiped Him.

†[BBE]And he said, Lord, I have faith. And he gave him worship.

†[GNT] "I believe, Lord!" the man said, and knelt down before Jesus.

†[NIV]Then the man said, "Lord, I believe," and he worshiped him.

本会注释　　主啊。kurios，这里可能表达了敬意及其神圣含义（见第36节注释）。
　　拜。形象地继续讲述那恢复了视力看见耶稣──世界的真光——的人。他不仅为自己恢复了肉体上的视力而欢喜快乐，他还能用心灵的眼睛看见。

约9:39 耶稣说：“我为审判到这世上来，叫不能看见的，可以看见；能看见的，反瞎了眼。” (串)约5:22,27;12:47|太13:15

†[吕]耶稣说：“为了审判、我才到这世界上来，使看不见的能看见，而能看见的反而成了瞎眼！”

†[思]耶稣遂说：“我是为了判别，才到这世界上来，叫那些看不见的，看得见；叫那些看得见的，反而成为瞎子。”

†[当代]耶稣说：“我为了审判来到这世界，使瞎的可以看见；但自以为看得见的，眼睛反瞎了。”

†[新译]耶稣说：“我到这世上来是为了审判，使那看不见的能够看见，能看见的反而成了瞎眼的。”

†[Wlb]耶稣曰、我为鞫入世、使不见者得见、而见者反瞽也、

†[Xdv]耶稣说：“我到这世上来的目的是要审判，使瞎眼的，能看见；能看见的，反而瞎了眼。”

†[Kjv]And Jesus said, For judgment I am come into this world, that they which see not might see; and that they which see might be made blind.

†[Nkjv]And Jesus said, "For judgment I have come into this world, that those who do not see may see, and that those who see may be made blind."

†[BBE]And Jesus said, I came into this world to be a judge, so that those who do not see may see, and those who see may become blind.

†[GNT] Jesus said, "I came to this world to judge, so that the blind should see and those who see should become blind."

†[NIV]Jesus said, "For judgment I have come into this world, so that the blind will see and those who see will become blind."

本会注释　　审判。krima，指审判的结果，在这里的意思是筛选和分离，而不是krisis（审判的行动）。因此，本节与约3:17并无矛盾（参约8:15）。耶稣第一次降临的根本目的不是要审判世界，而是要拯救世界（参路19:10）。然而，基督的到来使光照进了世人心中的黑暗，人接受或拒绝这光，就宣布了对自己的判决。光本身并不审判人，而是借着光，那些被照亮的人要接受审判。西面曾预言过基督的这种使命（路2:34,35）。
　　不能看见的。这句话包含两方面的意思，都是正确的。基督不仅医治了人肉体上的盲目（太11:5）；祂还医治了人属灵上的瞎眼。祂的使命两方面的意义在这个神迹中都得到了体现。
　　反瞎了眼。将这里与赛6:9,10；可4:11,12进行比较。当人喜爱黑暗过于喜爱光明（约3:19）他们终必将丧失他们属灵的辨别力。见太6:23；约壹2:11。

约9:40 同他在那里的法利赛人听见这话，就说：“难道我们也瞎了眼吗？” (串)罗2:19

†[吕]同耶稣在那里的法利赛人、有的听见了这些话，就对耶稣说：“难道连我们也瞎了眼么？”

†[思]有些和他在一起的法利塞人，一听了这话就说：“难道我们也是瞎子么？”

†[当代]有些跟祂在一起的法利赛人听了这句话，就问，“难道我们是瞎的吗？”

†[新译]有些和耶稣在一起的法利赛人听了这话，就说：“难道我们也是瞎眼的吗？”

†[Wlb]同在之法利赛人问之曰、我侪亦瞽乎、

†[Xdv]在那里的一些法利赛人听见这话，就问他：“难道你把我们也当作瞎眼的吗？”

†[Kjv]And some of the Pharisees which were with him heard these words, and said unto him, Are we blind also?

†[Nkjv]Then some of the Pharisees who were with Him heard these words, and said to Him, "Are we blind also?"

†[BBE]These words came to the ears of the Pharisees who were with him and they said to him, Are we, then, blind?

†[GNT] Some Pharisees who were there with him heard him say this and asked him, "Surely you don't mean that we are blind, too?"

†[NIV]Some Pharisees who were with him heard him say this and asked, "What? Are we blind too?"

本会注释　　难道我们也瞎了眼吗？原文的结构期待否定的回答。“我们”是强调的，即我们这些宗教领袖当然不是瞎子！这不是一种谦卑恳切的询问。法利赛人显然明白主话中的含义，于是就以嘲笑的口吻说出了这句话。

约9:41 耶稣对他们说：“你们若瞎了眼，就没有罪了；但如今你们说‘我们能看见’，所以你们的罪还在。” (串)约15:22,24|雅4:17约壹1:8

†[吕]耶稣对他们说：“你们如果瞎了眼，就没有罪了；但如今你们说‘我们能看见’；那你们的罪就还存在着。”

†[思]耶稣回答说：“你们如果是瞎子，就没有罪了；但你们如今说：我们看得见，你们的罪恶便存留下来了。”

†[当代]耶稣说：“如果你们是瞎的，就没有罪。但现在你们自称是看得见，这就是你们的罪。”

†[新译]耶稣对他们说：“如果你们是瞎眼的，就没有罪了；但现在你们说‘我们能看见’，所以你们还是有罪的。”

†[Wlb]耶稣曰、尔若瞽、则无罪、今云我见、尔罪尚在焉、

†[Xdv]耶稣回答：“如果你们是瞎眼的，你们就没有罪；既然你们说‘我们能看见’，那么，你们仍然是有罪的。”

†[Kjv]Jesus said unto them, If ye were blind, ye should have no sin: but now ye say, We see; therefore your sin remaineth.

†[Nkjv]Jesus said to them, "If you were blind, you would have no sin; but now you say, "We see.' Therefore your sin remains.

†[BBE]Jesus said to them, If you were blind you would have no sin: but now that you say, We see; your sin is there still.

†[GNT] Jesus answered, "If you were blind, then you would not be guilty; but since you claim that you can see, this means that you are still guilty."

†[NIV]Jesus said, "If you were blind, you would not be guilty of sin; but now that you claim you can see, your guilt remains.

本会注释　　你们若瞎了眼。就是如果他们没有机会接受亮光和启示。上帝审判人是以他们接受的亮光为基础的或者说是以他们将所接受的亮光实行出来多少为基础的。见@约15:22@注释。
　　我们能看见。他们对于现有知识的自满，导致上帝不能将更多的知识传授给他们。犹太人拒绝了耶稣，就拒绝了上天传光给他们的通道。
