Contextual Overview
13 So they brought to the Pharisees him who had been blind from his birth. 14 Now it was the sabbath when Jesus made the clay, and opened his eyes. 15 Again the Pharisees asked him, How did you receive your sight? He said to them, He placed clay on my eyes, and I washed, and I see. 16 Then some of the Pharisees said, This man is not from God, because he does not observe the sabbath; others said, How can a man who is a sinner do these miracles? And there was a division among them. 17 They said to the blind man again, What do you say concerning him who opened your eyes? He said to them, I say he is a prophet. 18 But the Jews did not believe concerning him, that he had been blind, and had received his sight, until they called the parents of him who had received his sight. 19 And they asked them, Is this your son, who you say was born blind? how then does he now see? 20 His parents answered and said, We know that he is our son, and that he was born blind. 21 But how he sees now, or who opened his eyes, we do not know; he is of age, ask him, he will speak for himself. 22 His parents said these things because they were afraid of the Jews; for the Jews had decided already, that if any man should confess that he is the Christ, they would put him out of the synagogue.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
They brought to the Pharisees,.... That is, to the sanhedrim, which chiefly consisted of Pharisees; and so Nonnus calls them the priests and chief priests:
him that was aforetime blind; to be examined by them. And something like this is the method used by carnal relations and friends, who when they have any belonging to them under a work of grace, have them to their learned doctors of a different religion, to talk to them, and dissuade them from the ways of truth and godliness.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
To the Pharisees - To the members of the Sanhedrin. They did this, doubtless, to accuse Jesus of having violated the Sabbath, and not, as they ought to have done, to examine into the evidence that he was from God.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse John 9:13. They brought to the Pharisees — These had the chief rule, and determined all controversies among the people; in every case of religion, their judgment was final: the people, now fully convinced that the man had been cured, brought him to the Pharisees, that they might determine how this was done, and whether it had been done legally.
