The question which they are made to ask in the story indicates the two main views which the people of John's trouble. The Jewish view--as old as Tha Jreek view was that in some Jesus' answer (v. 3) did not mean fering as punishment.

"1 WON'T BELIEVE, John 9: 8-34, The story begins with the healing of physical blindness, but it soon shifts to the Jews who, in spite of the con- elusive evidence, remain stubbornly unbelieving. They fastened uj id no sirls--and he never had more. He not one of those who take more light in a mere infant; but no father ever devoted more time and tender care to his offspring than he did to each of his, as they succes- sively reached the age when they could listen to him, and understand his talk.

From a very early age he made them dine at table, and "to sit up to supper" was the great reward when they had been "very good bairns," In short, he considered it as the highest duty, as well as the sweetest pleasure of a parent to be the companion of his children; be partook all their little joys and aor rows, and made his kind informal {nstruction to blend 30 easily and playtully with the current of thelr own sayings and doings, that so far from regarding him with any dis tant awe, it was never thought that any sport or diversion could go om in the right way, unless papa werg of the party, or that the ralniest day could be dull, so he were ak home.--John Gibson Lockhart, im "Lita of Sir Walter Scott." emp met work involved in wetting the clay on the Sabbath, and made it the basis of the charge against Jesus, v. 16, * good man would not break the Sab- "A bad man could not work a miracle," retorted another.

All seven children of the oe iginal sufferer experienced this dizsy, feeling, Miss Heaton reports, one wo- man go severely that she could not even ride in a high carriage because it made her dizzy to look down two or three feet to tha ground.
