|Then again called they the man that was blind, and said unto him, Give God the praise: we know that this man is a sinner.
|So once again, they called the man who had been blind, and told him, "Give the glory to God. We have known that this man was a sinner for quite some time."
|So once again, they called the man who had been blind, and told him, "Give the glory to God. We have known that this man was a sinner for quite some time."
|The tense here is perfect, indicating present time, completed aspect, which usually indicates something that happened in the past, but has direct, present time application. The idea is that they known about Jesus being a sinner for a long time, so it is a foregone conclusion now. I have used "for quite some time" to translate the meaning of the tense.
