A Pressed Man Yielding to Christ October 12, 1882 by C. H. SPURGEON (1834-1892) "Jesus heard that they had cast him out; and when he had found him, he said unto him, Dost thou believe on he Son of God? He answered and said, Who is he, Lord, that I might believe on him? And Jesus said unto him, Thou hast both seen him, and it is he that talketh with thee. And he said, Lord, I believe. And he worshipped him." John 9:35-38 . Last Sabbath morning, I spoke to you concerning one who was impressed... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - John 9:1-41

Shall we turn now in our Bibles to the gospel according to John, chapter 9.Jesus had been having a dispute with the Pharisees in the temple at the time of the Feast of the Tabernacles, six months or so before the Passover in which He was crucified. And in the eighth chapter it records His conversations with them, with His declaring unto to them, "Before Abraham was I am." And so the last time we saw Jesus they were taking up stones to throw at Him, and He passed by them and left the temple... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - John 9:1-41

John 9:7 . Go, wash in the pool of Siloam. Some travellers say that this fountain is supplied by conduits from the Gihon, and that the water has a sweet taste. Mr. Biddulph, quoted on John 4:5, says the same of Jacob’s well. The pool of Siloam was situated near the temple; and they drew water from it in a golden pitcher to pour on the sacrifices, during the feast of tabernacles. See Isaiah 12:3. 2 Chronicles 32:30. It was once so spacious that the people could swim in it. John 9:11 . ... read more

John 9:1-25And as Jesus passed by He saw a man which was blind from his birthJesus and the blind manI.CHRONIC BLINDNESS. 1. A type of spiritual need (John 9:1; Ephesians 4:18; 2Co Luke 2:34; Isaiah 59:9; Proverbs 4:19; Isaiah 59:10). 2. Common to the human race (John 9:2; Romans 3:23; Psalms 14:3; 1 John 5:19; Romans 5:12; Romans 5:14; Romans 5:21). II. HELP GRANTED. 1.

John 9:13-18They brought to the Pharisees himThe first examination of the Man I.AN IMPORTANT ADMISSION. The Pharisees recognized that the man saw (John 9:13). If therefore he had been previously blind, there must have been a miracle. II. AN IRRELEVANT QUESTION. They wished to know how the man had received his sight (John 9:15), when all that they had to determine was whether he had received his sight. III. A STRAIGHTFORWARD ANSWER. The man having nothing to conceal, gave a simple recitation of... read more

John 9:16This Man is not of God because He keepeth not the Sabbath day.It is interesting to note that one of the things which is specially forbidden in the Talmudic law of the Sabbath is the application of saliva to the eyes on that day. It was not permissible to anoint the eye itself with wine on the Sabbath; but one might, without guilt, wash his eyebrows in wine. In the case of saliva, however, it was not permissible to anoint even the outside of the eyes on the Sabbath. Jesus, in the mode... read more

John 9:19-23Is this your son?The testimony of the man’s parentsI. JOYFUL RECOGNITION. They identified him as their son. The neighbours could only say he was like the beggar they had known (John 9:9): the man’s parents had no doubt. II. SORROWFUL CONCESSION. The son’s report as to his blindness was correct. He had never known the light of day. III. CAUTIOUS NEGATION. They declared ignorance of how the miracle had been wrought; so far, at least as their own observation went. IV. PRUDENT... read more
