The Jews call his parents
유대인들이 그 부모를 불러 물음
John 9:18–23: the Jews don’t believe concerning him, that he had been blind and had received his sight, until they call the parents of him who had received his sight and ask them, “Is this your son, whom you say was born blind? How then does he now see?” His parents answer them, “We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind; but how he now sees, we don’t know; or who opened his eyes, we don’t know. He is of age. Ask him. He will speak for himself.” His parents say these things because they fear the Jews; for the Jews had already agreed that if any man would confess Jesus as Christ, he would be put out of the synagogue. Therefore his parents say, “He is of age. Ask him.”
