Please someone explain to me why initialization blocks run before ending of the constructor in the class?

Welcome to the Ranch 
That was obviously a decision they had to make when developing Java™, and the details will be in the Language specification somewhere.

When the constructor finishes, the instance should be ready for use, which includes any initialization.

Thanks for the directions guys,
I found the answer to my question. If some initialization blocks exists in a class run after super(); in the constructor, and this is like that because of the need of having initialization code that all constructors in the class share. So no mater with which constructor we'll make an instance, the initialization blocks will run and initialize the new object.

I can't understand that. The full details are in the Java™ Language Specification. Scroll down from this section to the following §12.5.
