In context

18 The Jews still did not believe that the man had been blind and had received his sight until they summoned his parents

19 and asked, “Is this your son, the one you say was born blind? So how is it that he can now see?”

20 His parents answered, “We know he is our son, and we know he was born blind.

21 But how he can now see or who opened his eyes, we do not know. Ask him. He is old enough to speak for himself.”

22 His parents said this because they were afraid of the Jews. For the Jews had already determined that anyone who confessed Jesus as the Christ would be put out of the synagogue.

23 That was why his parents said, “He is old enough. Ask him.”

24 So a second time they called for the man who had been blind and said, “Give glory to God! We know that this man is a sinner.”
