Exegesis

The conjunction hina {ἵνα | hí-na} introduces a purpose clause structured by two balanced articular participle clauses, hoi me blepontes {οἱ μὴ βλέποντες | hoí mḕ blé-po-ntes} and hoi blepontes {οἱ βλέποντες | hoí blé-po-ntes}, each followed by a subjunctive verb. This creates a deliberate reversal pattern: those lacking sight are granted sight, while those characterized by sight come to blindness.

In contextJohn 9:39

And Jesus said, “I came into this present world with judgment in view, so that those lacking sight may see, and those who see may become blind.”
