SEV Biblia, Chapter 9:38
Y l dice: Creo, Seor; y le ador.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - John 9:38
Verse 38. And he said, Lord, I believe.] That is, I believe thou art the Messiah; and, to give the fullest proof of the sincerity of his faith, he fell down before and adored him. Never having seen Jesus before, but simply knowing that a person of that name had opened his eyes, he had only considered him as a holy man and a prophet; but now that he sees and hears him he is convinced of his divinity, and glorifies him as his saviour. We may hear much of Jesus, but can never know his glories and excellencies till he has discovered himself to our hearts by his own Spirit; then we believe on him, trust him with our souls, and trust in him for our salvation. The word kurie has two meanings: it signifies Lord, or Sovereign Ruler, and Sir, a title of civil respect. In the latter sense it seems evidently used in the 36th verse, because the poor man did not then know that Jesus was the Messiah; in the former sense it is used in this verse-now the healed man knew the quality of his benefactor.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 38. And he said, Lord, I believe , etc.] He immediately found faith in his soul, and that in exercise, moving towards, and acting upon Christ, as the Son of God, and true Messiah, for everlasting life and salvation; and as soon as he did perceive it, he made an open and hearty profession of it: and he worshipped him : as God, with religious worship and adoration, not only trusting in him, but ascribing honour, glory, and blessing to him, which are due to God only, and not a creature.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 35-38 - Christ owns those who own him and his truth and ways. There is particular notice taken of such a suffer in the cause of Christ, and for the testimony of a good conscience. Our Lord Jesus graciousl reveals himself to the man. Now he was made sensible what a unspeakable mercy it was, to be cured of his blindness, that he migh see the Son of God. None but God is to be worshipped; so that is worshipping Jesus, he owned him to be God. All who believe in him, wil worship him.
