“And he that was healed wist not who it was: for Jesus had conveyed himself away, a multitude being in that place.”
Later Jesus found him at the temple and said to him, 'See, you are well again. Stop sinning or something worse may happen to you.' — Jesus' reappearance at the temple (the heart of Jewish religion) and his warning against sin suggests that physical healing is incomplete without spiritual transformation. The implication—that past sin caused the illness—reflects the thought-world of John's community but is not universalized.
