Then large crowds came to him bringing with them the lame, blind, crippled, mute, and many others. They laid them at his feet, and he healed them.

"Woe to you, blind guides, who say, 'Whoever swears by the temple is bound by nothing. But whoever swears by the gold of the temple is bound by the oath.'

Blind fools! Which is greater, the gold or the temple that makes the gold sacred?

You are blind! For which is greater, the gift or the altar that makes the gift sacred?

Blind guides! You strain out a gnat yet swallow a camel!

Blind Pharisee! First clean the inside of the cup, so that the outside may become clean too!

Then they came to Bethsaida. They brought a blind man to Jesus and asked him to touch him.

He took the blind man by the hand and brought him outside of the village. Then he spit on his eyes, placed his hands on his eyes and asked, "Do you see anything?"

They came to Jericho. As Jesus and his disciples and a large crowd were leaving Jericho, Bartimaeus the son of Timaeus, a blind beggar, was sitting by the road.

Jesus stopped and said, "Call him." So they called the blind man and said to him, "Have courage! Get up! He is calling you."

Then Jesus said to him, "What do you want me to do for you?" The blind man replied, "Rabbi, let me see again."

"The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim release to the captives and the regaining of sight to the blind, to set free those who are oppressed,

At that very time Jesus cured many people of diseases, sicknesses, and evil spirits, and granted sight to many who were blind.

But when you host an elaborate meal, invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, and the blind.

So the slave came back and reported this to his master. Then the master of the household was furious and said to his slave, 'Go out quickly to the streets and alleys of the city, and bring in the poor, the crippled, the blind, and the lame.'

But concerning the one who lacks such things -- he is blind. That is to say, he is nearsighted, since he has forgotten about the cleansing of his past sins.

But the one who hates his fellow Christian is in the darkness, walks in the darkness, and does not know where he is going, because the darkness has blinded his eyes.

As Jesus approached Jericho, a blind man was sitting by the road begging.

Because you say, "I am rich and have acquired great wealth, and need nothing," but do not realize that you are wretched, pitiful, poor, blind, and naked,

A great number of sick, blind, lame, and paralyzed people were lying in these walkways.

Now as Jesus was passing by, he saw a man who had been blind from birth.

His disciples asked him, "Rabbi, who committed the sin that caused him to be born blind, this man or his parents?"

Jesus answered, "Neither this man nor his parents sinned, but he was born blind so that the acts of God may be revealed through what happens to him.

Having said this, he spat on the ground and made some mud with the saliva. He smeared the mud on the blind man's eyes

They brought the man who used to be blind to the Pharisees.

So again they asked the man who used to be blind, "What do you say about him, since he caused you to see?" "He is a prophet," the man replied.

Now the Jewish religious leaders refused to believe that he had really been blind and had gained his sight until at last they summoned the parents of the man who had become able to see.

They asked the parents, "Is this your son, whom you say was born blind? Then how does he now see?"

So his parents replied, "We know that this is our son and that he was born blind.

Then they summoned the man who used to be blind a second time and said to him, "Promise before God to tell the truth. We know that this man is a sinner."

He replied, "I do not know whether he is a sinner. I do know one thing -- that although I was blind, now I can see."

Never before has anyone heard of someone causing a man born blind to see.

Jesus said,] "For judgment I have come into this world, so that those who do not see may gain their sight, and the ones who see may become blind."

Some of the Pharisees who were with him heard this and asked him, "We are not blind too, are we?"

Jesus replied, "If you were blind, you would not be guilty of sin, but now because you claim that you can see, your guilt remains."

Others said, "These are not the words of someone possessed by a demon. A demon cannot cause the blind to see, can it?"

But some of them said, "This is the man who caused the blind man to see! Couldn't he have done something to keep Lazarus from dying?"

"He has blinded their eyes and hardened their heart, so that they would not see with their eyes and understand with their heart, and turn to me, and I would heal them."

Now look, the hand of the Lord is against you, and you will be blind, unable to see the sun for a time!" Immediately mistiness and darkness came over him, and he went around seeking people to lead him by the hand.
