John 9:39 Douay-Rheims

And Jesus said: For judgment I am come into this world; that they who see not, may see; and they who see, may become blind.

John Chrysostom

A.D. 347–407 Patristic

(Hom. lix. 1) He adds the deed to the word, as a clear acknowledgment of His divine power. The Lord replies in a way to confirm His faith, and at the same time stirs up the minds of His followers: And Jesus said, For judgment have I come into this world.
