cause_n of_o blindness_n but_o that_o neither_o the_o one_o nor_o the_o other_o be_v the_o cause_n in_o that_o man_n case_n but_o that_o the_o power_n and_o mercy_n of_o god_n may_v be_v see_v in_o

in_o it_o namely_o to_o instruct_v reform_v and_o save_v mankind_n and_o what_o our_o saviour_n say_v of_o himself_o be_v applicable_a to_o every_o one_o of_o we_o in_o a_o low_a sense_n we_o be_v send_v into_o the_o world_n to_o work_v out_o our_o own_o salvation_n in_o the_o first_o place_n and_o then_o to_o promote_v the_o salvation_n of_o other_o as_o much_o as_o in_o we_o lie_v note_v 1._o that_o every_o one_o have_v a_o work_n to_o do_v in_o the_o world_n a_o great_a work_n assign_v he_o by_o god_n that_o send_v he_o into_o it_o 2._o that_o the_o time_n allot_v for_o the_o finish_n and_o dispatch_v of_o this_o great_a work_n it_o be_v a_o limit_a time_n it_o be_v a_o short_a time_n our_o work_a season_n be_v a_o short_a season_n while_o it_o be_v day_n 3._o that_o after_o the_o

of_o this_o blind_a man._n namely_o a_o act_n of_o divine_a power_n on_o christ_n part_n and_o a_o act_n of_o faith_n and_o obedience_n on_o the_o man_n part_n 1._o a_o act_n of_o divine_a power_n on_o christ_n part_n he_o temper_n clay_n and_o spital_n together_o and_o anoint_v the_o man_n eye_n therewith_o and_o behold_v he_o see_v what_o a_o improbable_a remedy_n and_o mean_n be_v this_o to_o humane_a reason_n much_o fit_a to_o put_v out_o a_o see_v man_n eye_n than_o to_o cure_v a_o blind_a man_n have_v christ_n pull_v out_o his_o box_n and_o apply_v some_o medicinal_a ointment_n to_o his_o eye_n then_o the_o praise_n have_v be_v ascribe_v to_o his_o skill_n not_o to_o his_o power_n but_o now_o it_o plain_o appear_v that_o all_o the_o virtue_n be_v in_o christ_n not_o in_o the_o mean_n lord_n what_o great_a thing_n can_v thou_o do_v by_o weak_a and_o unlikely_a mean_n yea_o by_o opposite_a and_o contrary_a mean_n but_o it_o be_v the_o praise_n of_o omnipotency_n to_o work_v by_o improbability_n from_o the_o contemptibleness_n of_o the_o mean_n or_o instrument_n always_o redound_v the_o great_a honour_n to_o the_o agent_n observe_v 2._o a_o act_n of_o faith_n and_o obedience_n on_o the_o man_n part_n he_o go_v his_o way_n and_o wash_v his_o eye_n in_o the_o pool_n of_o siloam_n and_o return_v see_v where_o note_n 1._o how_o christ_n delight_v to_o exercise_v and_o try_v the_o faith_n of_o his_o people_n by_o their_o subjection_n and_o obedience_n to_o difficult_a command_n 2._o that_o true_a faith_n join_v with_o sincere_a obedience_n never_o fail_v the_o expectation_n of_o they_o that_o exercise_v it_o especial_o in_o obey_v the_o most_o hard_a and_o difficult_a command_n therefore_o the_o evangelist_n add_v that_o the_o blind_a man_n after_o wash_v return_v see_v 8_o ¶_o the_o neighbour_n therefore_o and_o they_o which_o before_o have_v see_v he_o that_o he_o be_v blind_a say_v be_v not_o this_o he_o that_o sit_v and_o beg_v 9_o some_o say_v this_o be_v he_o other_o say_v he_o be_v like_o he_o but_o he_o say_v i_o be_o he_o 10_o therefore_o say_v they_o unto_o they_o how_o be_v thy_o eye_n open_v 11_o he_o answer_v and_o say_v a_o man_n that_o be_v call_v jesus_n make_v clay_n and_o anoint_v my_o eye_n and_o say_v unto_o i_o go_v to_o the_o pool_n of_o siloam_n and_o wash_v and_o i_o go_v and_o wash_v and_o i_o receive_v sight_n 12_o then_o say_v they_o unto_o he_o where_o be_v he_o he_o say_v i_o know_v not_o the_o blind_a man_n thus_o miraculous_o cure_v return_v with_o much_o joy_n to_o his_o neighbour_n and_o acquaintance_n who_o confer_v with_o he_o upon_o this_o matter_n they_o inquire_v whether_o he_o be_v the_o person_n cure_v or_o not_o who_o be_v the_o person_n that_o cure_v he_o and_o where_o that_o person_n be_v he_o assure_v they_o he_o be_v the_o very_a person_n that_o be_v blind_a but_o now_o cure_v that_o he_o that_o cure_v he_o be_v jesus_n that_o the_o mean_v use_v be_v clay_n and_o spital_n but_o where_o this_o jesus_n be_v or_o what_o be_v become_v of_o he_o he_o know_v not_o learn_v hence_o 1._o that_o the_o miraculous_a cure_n of_o god_n work_v a_o sensible_a alteration_n in_o man_n not_o only_o in_o their_o own_o apprehension_n but_o in_o the_o judgement_n of_o other_o this_o miracle_n shine_v forth_o among_o the_o neighbour_n who_o have_v see_v and_o observe_v the_o blind_a man_n admire_v his_o heal_n learn_v 2._o how_o frank_o the_o blind_a man_n acknowledge_v and_o how_o free_o he_o confess_v that_o he_o be_v the_o person_n who_o jesus_n have_v heal_v i_o be_o he_o it_o be_v a_o unthankful_a silence_n to_o smother_v the_o work_n of_o god_n in_o a_o affect_a secrecy_n to_o make_v god_n a_o loser_n by_o his_o bounty_n towards_o we_o be_v a_o shameful_a injustice_n oh_o god_n we_o be_v not_o worthy_a of_o thy_o common_a favour_n much_o less_o of_o spiritual_a blessing_n if_o we_o do_v not_o publish_v thy_o mercy_n on_o the_o house_n top_n and_o praise_v thou_o for_o they_o in_o the_o great_a congregation_n 13_o ¶_o they_o bring_v to_o the_o pharisees_n he_o that_o aforetime_o be_v blind_a 14_o and_o it_o be_v the_o sabbath-day_n when_o jesus_n make_v the_o clay_n and_o open_v his_o eye_n 15_o then_o again_o the_o pharisee_n also_o ask_v he_o how_o he_o have_v receive_v his_o sight_n he_o say_v unto_o they_o he_o put_v clay_n upon_o my_o eye_n and_o i_o wash_v and_o do_v see_v 16_o therefore_o say_v some_o of_o the_o pharisee_n this_o man_n be_v not_o of_o god_n because_v he_o keep_v not_o the_o sabbath-day_n other_o say_v how_o can_v a_o man_n that_o be_v a_o sinner_n do_v such_o miracle_n and_o there_o be_v a_o division_n among_o they_o observe_v here_o 1._o how_o the_o jew_n who_o shall_v have_v be_v full_a of_o silent_a wonder_n and_o incline_v to_o believe_v in_o jesus_n christ_n so_o omnipotent_a a_o agent_n be_v prejudice_v against_o he_o and_o bring_v the_o late_a blind_a man_n before_o the_o pharisee_n our_o saviour_n profess_a enemy_n observe_v 2._o the_o time_n which_o our_o saviour_n choose_v for_o work_v this_o cure_n it_o be_v on_o the_o sabbath_n many_o if_o not_o most_o of_o christ_n famous_a miracle_n be_v wrought_v upon_o the_o sabbath-day_n upon_o that_o day_n he_o cure_v the_o wither_a hand_n math._n 12._o upon_o that_o day_n he_o cure_v the_o impotent_a man_n at_o the_o pool_n of_o bethesda_n st._n john_n 5._o upon_o that_o day_n he_o cure_v the_o blind_a man_n here_o thus_o christ_n do_v probable_o for_o two_o reason_n 1._o to_o confirm_v his_o doctrine_n which_o he_o preach_v on_o that_o day_n by_o miracle_n therefore_o his_o preach_n and_o work_v miracle_n go_v together_o 2._o to_o instruct_v the_o jew_n have_v they_o be_v willing_a to_o receive_v instruction_n in_o the_o true_a doctrine_n and_o proper_a duty_n of_o their_o sabbath_n and_o to_o let_v they_o know_v that_o work_v of_o necessity_n and_o mercy_n be_v very_o consistent_a with_o the_o due_a sanctification_n of_o the_o

be_v common_o clamorous_a and_o impatient_a but_o innocence_n be_v silent_a and_o regardless_o of_o misreport_n our_o saviour_n be_v not_o at_o the_o pain_n of_o a_o word_n to_o vindicate_v himself_o
