“Some of the Pharisees said, “This man is not from God, because he doesn’t keep the Sabbath.” But others were saying, “How can a sinful man perform such signs?” And there was a division among them.
They asked them, “Is this your son, the one you say was born blind? How then does he now see?”
“We know this is our son and that he was born blind,” his parents answered. His parents said these things because they were afraid of the Jews, since the Jews had already agreed that if anyone confessed him as the Messiah, he would be banned from the synagogue.”
John 9:16, 19-20, 22 CSB
Jesus intentionally healed on the sabbath to help the Pharisees see their own blindness. Jesus still acts differently than I would expect ,even today…he needs us to see that He is bigger and more powerful than the box we imagine for him.
