SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 9:1–12: Jesus healed a man who was blind since his birth

This section tells how Jesus healed a man who had been blind all his life. His disciples asked Jesus who had sinned to make him blind, but Jesus said that he was blind to reveal God’s works. People disagreed about whether this man who could see was the same one who was blind.

Here are other possible section headings:

Jesus cured a man who had always been blind

Jesus caused a blind man to begin to see

A man who had never seen anything began to see

Paragraph 9:6–12

In Isaiah 42:6, 7 the Messiah is called “a light to the nations,” who will “open the eyes of the blind.” (The phrase “open the eyes of the blind” means “heal the eyes of the blind” or “enable someone to see.”) Here Jesus showed that he was the Messiah, the light of the world, by healing the blind man. People began to ask the man questions about this, and he told them honestly what happened.

9:12a

“Where is He?” they asked.

“Where is this man now?” the people asked him.
So the people said, “Well, where is this Jesus?”

Where is He?: The people wanted to know where Jesus had gone. For example:

Where is he now? (NLT)

Where is that man? (NET)

they asked: The pronoun they refers to the neighbors and other people that were introduced in 9:8. What the people said was a question, so it may be natural to say:

they asked him

9:12b

“I do not know,” he answered.

The man answered, “I do not know where he is.”
“I do not know where he went,” the man replied.

“I do not know,” he answered: The healed man said he did not know where Jesus went. Place the quote introducer where it is natural in your language. For example:

He said, “I do not know.” (NRSV)

TSN Tyndale Study Notes:

9:1-41 At the Festival of Shelters (chs 7–8), Jesus claimed to be the light of the world (8:12). Now John tells about Jesus giving light, both physically and spiritually, to a blind man who lived in darkness (see 9:5). The story ends with a splendid reversal of roles: The blind man who was assumed to be in spiritual darkness could see God’s light, whereas the Pharisees, who could see physically and were thought to be enlightened, were shown to be spiritually blind.
