Opposition Arises

After the healing of the blind man, upon what charge did some of the Pharisees seek to prove that Christ was not of God? BR-ASI9 100.5

“Therefore said some of the Pharisees, This man is not of God, because He keepeth not the sabbath day.” John 9:16, first part. BR-ASI9 100.6

Note.—This was a false charge. Christ did keep the Sabbath, but not according to the Pharisees’ idea of Sabbathkeeping. (See reading on “Christ and the Sabbath,” page 187.) BR-ASI9 100.7

What question did others raise in opposition to this view? BR-ASI9 100.8

“Others said, How can a man that is a sinner do such miracles? And there was a division among them.” John 9:16, last part. BR-ASI9 100.9
