10. "Then how were your eyes opened?" they asked.
11. He replied, "The man they call Jesus made some mud and put it on my eyes. He told me to go to Siloam and wash. So I went and washed. Then I could see."
12. "Where is this man?" they asked him. "I don't know," he said.
13. They brought to the Pharisees the man who had been blind.

15. So the Pharisees also asked him how he was able to see. "He put mud on my eyes," the man replied. "Then I washed. And now I can see."
