This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

30. τὸ θαυμαστόν. The marvellous thing, or the marvel. ‘You, the very people who ought to know such things (Joh 3:10), know not whether He is from God or not, and yet He opened my eyes.’ ‘You’ is emphatic, and perhaps is a taunting rejoinder to their ‘we know that this man is a sinner’ (Joh 9:24) and ‘we know that God hath spoken to Moses’ (Joh 9:29). The man gains courage at their evident discomfiture: moreover, his controversy with them developes and confirms his own faith. For γάρ see Winer, p. 559.
