32 Nobody has ever heard of opening the eyes of a man born blind.
32 Since the world began was it not heard that any man opened the eyes of one that was born blind.
32 Never since the world began has it been heard that anyone opened the eyes of a man born blind.
32 That someone opened the eyes of a man born blind has never been heard of - ever.
32 Since the world began it has been unheard of that anyone opened the eyes of one who was born blind.
32 Ever since the world began, no one has been able to open the eyes of someone born blind.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on John 9:32
Commentary on John 9:24-34
(Read John 9:24-34)
As Christ's mercies are most valued by those who have felt the want of them, that have been blind, and now see; so the most powerful and lasting affections to Christ, arise from actual knowledge of him. In the work of grace in the soul, though we cannot tell when, and how, and by what steps the blessed change was wrought, yet we may take the comfort, if we can say, through grace, Whereas I was blind, now I see. I did live a worldly, sensual life, but, thanks be to God, it is now otherwise with me, Ephesians 5:8. The unbelief of those who enjoy the means of knowledge and conviction, is indeed marvellous. All who have felt the power and grace of the Lord Jesus, wonder at the wilfulness of others who reject him. He argues strongly against them, not only that Jesus was not a sinner, but that he was of God. We may each of us know by this, whether we are of God or not. What do we? What do we for God? What do we for our souls? What do we more than others?
