Matthew Poole and continuators on John 10:21

21 Others said, these are not the words of him that hath a devil , Can a Devil open the eyes of the blind?

But others that were less Passionate and Brutish in their Expressions, and more thinking, and considerate in passing their judgments, said, These are not the words (so we translate it; the word in the Greek [non-Latin text not transcribed], which signifies things, and matters, as well as Words; and by what follows, one would think that were the more proper Translation of it here) they instance in no words, but in a matter of Fact. Asking, if a Devil could open the Eyes of the Blind? that is, of one that was born Blind: for they certainly speak with reference to that Miracle which he had so lately wrought upon such a person.
