There was the man himself, declaring that he had been blind, and had had his sight restored; but the Pharisees would rather deny the evidence of their own senses than admit that they were in error. So powerful is prejudice, so distorting is Pharisaical righteousness.

Der stod manden selv, som erklærede, at han havde været blind og var kommet til at se; men farisæerne ville hellere benægte, hvad de så med deres egne øjne, end indrømme, at de tog fejl. Så stærk er fordom, så forvanskende er farisæisk retfærdighed.
