John
Chapter
9 (Continued) {Note: Principal - religion destroys the natural affiliation in the home. These parents are afraid and just back out. Ask him! Leave us out of it!}
22-23~~(These
{things} his parents said {lego} {Note: To be put out of the synagogue is very much like ex-communication. If you are 'put out' it means no social or business relationships with the other Jews. It was a form of slow death. No one could give them food or sell them food or help them in any way.}
{Questioning
'Under Oath' - Intimidation Increases}
25~~He
'had an answer'/'gave a discerning answer
26~~
Then they said to him a second time,
{Beautiful
Sarcasm from the Beggar} {Note: haha Sure they did! He knew what they wanted the information for! To discredit Jesus. The negative 'me' here indicates he knew this was not the case.}
{Logic
Cannot be Countered so - Verbal Abuse } {Note: Watching legalists have a tantrum is like watching a volcano explode! They cursed him like no one 'respectable' should! Haha - At this point he is not even a believer! See verse 38.}
{Exposing
the Soft Under-belly of their Legalistic Stance}
{Beggar
Hits them in their Soft Spot}
{Logical
Words from an Unbeliever}
{Beggar
Lowers the Hammer}
{Note:
Summary of the Beggars 'Common Sense Logic':
34~~They
'had an answer'/'gave a discerning answer {Note: Ballo is the word from which we get ball. It does come to mean to throw. So ek means out so they physically threw him out of the temple.}
{The
Man's Response to Jesus} {Note: The better manuscripts have anthropos here for mankind, instead of Theo meaning God.}
36~~
The man 'had an answer'/'gave a discerning answer
37~~
Jesus told him, {Note: Laleo means to teach categorically - doctrine in this case.}
{Beggar
just needed Mechanics of Salvation - Becomes Saved Right Here} {Note: Proskuneo is the Greek compound word for worship. 'Pros' means face to face with. Kuneo means to kiss. So proskuneo means to kiss face to face. In the spiritual realm, it means for your soul to kiss face to face the Lord - and that is worship.}
39~~
Jesus said, "For the purpose of judgment {Note: The first statement refers to the beggar. He was physically blind and now he can physically see. The miracle was Jesus' calling card that He is and always has been Messiah. The second verse is for the Pharisees and all 'religious legalists' who have permitted religion to blind them. At one time they were not blind, but they were negative at the point of God consciousness and a vacuum was created that sucked in religion and other false doctrines from the source of Satan. They have so much false doctrine in their soul, that they are now blinded to the Truth.} {Note: Jesus came for two purposes. Here we see He came for judgment. In the next Chapter we see that He also came to 'gather His sheep'.}
40~~Some
of the Pharisees {Note: The negative 'me' in a question indicates that a negative response is expected, so the correct translation should have 'we are not!'.}
41~~Jesus
