For the works that the Father has given Me to accomplish—the very works I am doing—testify about Me that the Father has sent Me. / And the Father who sent Me has Himself testified about Me. You have never heard His voice nor seen His form, John 10:25-26 “I already told you,” Jesus replied, “but you did not believe. The works I do in My Father’s name testify on My behalf. / But because you are not My sheep, you refuse to believe. John 8:43-47 Why do you not understand what I am saying? It is because you are unable to accept My message. / You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out his desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, refusing to uphold the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, because he is a liar and the father of lies. / But because I speak the truth, you do not believe Me! ... John 3:2 He came to Jesus at night and said, “Rabbi, we know that You are a teacher who has come from God. For no one could perform the signs You are doing if God were not with him.” John 7:31 Many in the crowd, however, believed in Him and said, “When the Christ comes, will He perform more signs than this man?” John 12:37-38 Although Jesus had performed so many signs in their presence, they still did not believe in Him. / This was to fulfill the word of Isaiah the prophet: “Lord, who has believed our message? And to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?” John 15:24 If I had not done among them the works that no one else did, they would not be guilty of sin; but now they have seen and hated both Me and My Father. Matthew 11:4-5 Jesus replied, “Go back and report to John what you hear and see: / The blind receive sight, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, and the good news is preached to the poor.

Acts 2:22 Men of Israel, listen to this message: Jesus of Nazareth was a man certified by God to you by miracles, wonders, and signs, which God did among you through Him, as you yourselves know.

Acts 10:38 how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power, and how Jesus went around doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, because God was with Him. Isaiah 35:5-6 Then the eyes of the blind will be opened and the ears of the deaf unstopped. / Then the lame will leap like a deer and the mute tongue will shout for joy. For waters will gush forth in the wilderness, and streams in the desert. Isaiah 42:7 to open the eyes of the blind, to bring prisoners out of the dungeon and those sitting in darkness out from the prison house. Isaiah 29:18 On that day the deaf will hear the words of the scroll, and out of the deep darkness the eyes of the blind will see. Treasury of Scripture Then said they to him again, What did he to you? how opened he your eyes? Jump to Previous Eyes Open Opened UseJump to Next Eyes Open Opened UseJohn 9 1. The man born blind is restored to sight.8. He is brought to the Pharisees. 13. They are offended at it; 35. but he is received of Jesus, and confesses him. 39. Who they are whom Jesus enlightens. What did he do to you? This phrase reflects the ongoing skepticism and disbelief of the Pharisees regarding the miraculous healing of the man born blind. The Greek word for "do" here is "ἐποίησεν" (epoiēsen), which implies an action or work. In the context of the Gospel of John, Jesus' works are not just miracles but signs pointing to His divine identity and mission. The Pharisees' question reveals their inability or unwillingness to see beyond the physical act to the spiritual significance of Jesus' miracle. Historically, this reflects the tension between Jesus and the religious leaders, who often questioned His authority and sought to undermine His ministry. How did he open your eyes?
