John Gill Commentary John 9:13

"They bring to the Pharisees him that aforetime was blind." — John 9:13 (ASV)

They brought to the Pharisees That is, to the sanhedrim, which chiefly consisted of Pharisees; and so Nonnus calls them the priests and chief priests:

him that was aforetime blind ; to be examined by them. And something like this is the method used by carnal relations and friends, who when they have any belonging to them under a work of grace, have them to their learned doctors of a different religion, to talk to them, and dissuade them from the ways of truth and godliness.
