Here (seen more clearly than at 8:12 ) it is obvious what the author sees as the significance of Jesus’ statement. “Light” is not a metaphysical definition of the person of Jesus but a description of his effect on the world, forcing everyone in the world to ‘choose up sides’ for or against him (cf. 3:19-21 ).","source_note_position":1,"source_url":"https://netbible.org/resource/netNote/John%209%3A5/1"}

In later Jewish practice there were at least two forms of excommunication: a temporary ban for thirty days, and a permanent ban. But whether these applied in NT times is far from certain. There is no substantial evidence for a formal ban on Christians until later than this Gospel could possibly have been written. This may be a reference to some form of excommunication adopted as a contingency to deal with those who were proclaiming Jesus to be the Messiah. If so, there is no other record of the procedure than here. It was probably local, limited to the area around Jerusalem. See also the note on synagogue in 6:59 .","source_note_position":5,"source_url":"https://netbible.org/resource/netNote/John%209%3A22/5"}

In the Johannine context the word would connote its full sense: This was something due God alone. Note also that Jesus did not prevent the man from doing this. The verb προσκυνέω ( proskunew ) is used in John 4:20-25 of worshiping God, and again with the same sense in 12:20 . This would be the only place in John’s Gospel where anyone is said to have worshiped Jesus using this term. As such, it forms the climax of the story of the man born blind, but the uniqueness of the concept of worshiping Jesus at this point in John's narrative (which reaches its ultimate climax in the confession of Thomas in John 20:28 ) may suggest it is too early for such a response and it represents a later scribal addition.","source_note_position":1,"source_url":"https://netbible.org/resource/netNote/John%209%3A38/1"}

The blind man received sight physically, and this led him to see spiritually as well. But the Pharisees, who claimed to possess spiritual sight, were spiritually blinded. The reader might recall Jesus’ words to Nicodemus in 3:10 , “Are you the teacher of Israel and don’t understand these things?” In other words, to receive Jesus was to receive the light of the world, to reject him was to reject the light, close one’s eyes, and become blind. This is the serious sin of which Jesus had warned before ( 8:21-24 ). The blindness of such people was incurable since they had rejected the only cure that exists (cf. 12:39-41 ).","source_note_position":5,"source_url":"https://netbible.org/resource/netNote/John%209%3A41/5"}
