But the man who had been healed did not know who it was, for Jesus had slipped away, since there was a crowd in that place.
In context
11He answered them, “The man who made me well — he is the one who told me, ‘Pick up your mat and walk.’” 12They asked him, “Who is the man who told you, ‘Pick it up and walk’?” 13But the man who had been healed did not know who it was, for Jesus had slipped away, since there was a crowd in that place. 14Later Jesus found him in the temple and said to him, “See, you are well now. Sin no more, or something worse may happen to you.” 15The man went off and told the Jews that it was Jesus who had made him well.
