Jn. 9:34• 34Respondieron, y dijéronle: En pecados eres nacido todo, ¿y tú nos enseñas? Y echáronle fuera. (Jn. 9:34)
;
Mt. 16:14• 14Y ellos dijeron: Unos, Juan el Bautista; y otros, Elías; y otros; Jeremías, ó alguno de los profetas. (Mt. 16:14)
• Government is the natural thought when one sees God's cognizance of everything and every one here below. But it was not then, nor is it now, the time for His government of the world. Here lay the mistake of the disciples then, as of Job's friends of old—a mistake which leads souls, not only to censoriousness and misjudgment, but to forget their own sins and need of repentance in occupying themselves with what they count God's vengeance on others. (“Notes on John 9:1-12” by W. Kelly)
• It seems easy to understand that they conceived, however strangely, of punishment inflicted anticipatively on one whose eventual sin was foreseen by God. (“John 9” by W. Kelly)
