SCRIPTURE

"They bring to the Pharisees him that aforetime was blind. Now it was the sabbath on the day when Jesus made the clay, and opened his eyes." — John 9:13-14 (ASV)

They brought to the Pharisees him that aforetime was blind.

And it was the sabbath day when Jesus made the clay, and opened his eyes.

So you may be sure that the Pharisees would be down on him for that, because, according to the Rabbis, making the clay to put on this man's eyes would be a kind of brick-making, and they would immediately find him guilty of brick-making. So did these men pervert things and make people guilty where no offense had been committed whatsoever.
