You are not to present to the LORD any animal that is blind, injured, or maimed, or anything with a running sore, a festering rash, or a scab; you must not put any of these on the altar as a food offering to the LORD.

When they arrived at Bethsaida, some people brought a blind man and begged Jesus to touch him.

So He took the blind man by the hand and led him out of the village. Then He spit on the man’s eyes and placed His hands on him. “Can you see anything?” He asked.

Next, they came to Jericho. And as Jesus and His disciples were leaving Jericho with a large crowd, a blind beggar named Bartimaeus, the son of Timaeus, was sitting beside the road.

Jesus stopped and said, “Call him.” So they called the blind man. “Take courage!” they said. “Get up! He is calling for you.”

They brought to the Pharisees the man who had been blind.

So once again they asked the man who had been blind, “What do you say about Him, since it was your eyes He opened?” “He is a prophet,” the man replied.

The Jews still did not believe that the man had been blind and had received his sight until they summoned his parents

…and asked, “Is this your son, the one you say was born blind? So how is it that he can now see?”

His parents answered, “We know he is our son, and we know he was born blind.

But others replied, “These are not the words of a man possessed by a demon. Can a demon open the eyes of the blind?”

But some of them asked, “Could not this man who opened the eyes of the blind also have kept Lazarus from dying?”
