The exciting story of a blind healing and the subsequent discussions and Jesus' words we see the related section of text from 9.1 to 10.39
John My question.: What we see of God when Jesus opens our eyes like the blind man? If we are spiritually see?
We recognize God as the One who heals in "good works" and creative works (from 9.3 to 7, from 9.32 to 33, 10,32)
We recognize God as the one who appears in Jesus himself.
We recognize Jesus as the Son of man and worship him as Lord (9.35 to 38)
disciples of Moses recognize the law of God not being real, it actually generates incorrect assessment of people: the blind man is a sinner (V.34) , Jesus was a sinner because he healed on the Sabbath (V.16)
manifest God as Father, Jesus the Son, sends, that we recognize Jesus as the son and so to have life and more abundantly (10:10)
The Son and the Father are one (10:30)
The Son is the Father sent into the world (10:36)
Jesus is the Good Shepherd who gave his life can for the sheep (10:11), he gives his life for us 17)
Here as elsewhere, is clear: the theme of John's Gospel Jesus himself - Jesus as the revelation of the nature of God: God is healing and saving to us and gives himself up for us.
