hear's God's words, you can't hear the words because you are not of God.
JEWS.
Are not we correct in saying that you are a Samaritan and possessed by a devil?
JESUS.
I am not possessed by a devil! No, I honor my Father and you dishonor me. I don't seek my own glory. There is someone who takes
care of that and is the judge of it. I tell you most sincerely, whoever keeps my word will never see death.
JEWS.
Now we know you are possessed! Abraham and the prophets are dead and yet you say, 'If a man keeps my word, he will never taste
death.' Are you greater than our father Abraham, who is dead...and the prophets, who are dead? Who are you claiming to be?
JESUS.
If I honor myself, my honor is nothing. It is my father who honors me, the one of whom you say, 'He is your God.' Yet, you have not
known Him. But I know Him! And if I were to say, I don't know Him, I would be a liar just like yourselves. But I do know Him and
faithfully keep His word. Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day and he saw it and was glad.
JEWS.
You aren't even fifty years old and you've seen Abraham?
JESUS.
I tell you most sincerely, before Abraham was, I am.
NARRATOR.
At this, they picked up stones to throw at him, but Jesus hid himself and passed by them, going right through their midst and left the
Temple.

NARRATOR.
As he went along, he saw a man who had been born blind from birth. His disciples asked him:
DISCIPLES.
Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents?
JESUS.
Neither this man nor his parents sinned, but that the works of God might be displayed in him. While it is still day, I must do the works
that I was sent by Him to do. The night is coming when no man can work. As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.
NARRATOR.
After he had spoken, he spat on the ground and made a paste with the spittle. He then smeared the clay on the eyes of the blind man
and said: "Go and wash in the pool of Siloam" [a name which means - sent]. So the man went off and washed and away being able to
see. His neighbors and people who had previously seen him and knew he was blind said:
PEOPLE.
Isn't this the man who used to sit and beg?... Yes, it's the same man... No, it only looks like him.
BLIND MAN.
I am the one who was blind.
PEOPLE.
How then did you get your sight?
BLIND MAN.
A man named Jesus made clay, smeared it on my eyes and said; 'Go to the pool of Siloam and wash.' I went, washed and I was given
my sight!
PEOPLE.
Where is he?
BLIND MAN.
