Luke 19:45-20:8
45And he entered the temple and began to drive out those who sold,
46saying to them, “It is written, ‘My house shall be a house of prayer,’ but you have made it a den of robbers.”
47And he was teaching daily in the temple. The chief priests and the scribes and the principal men of the people were seeking to destroy him,
48but they did not find anything they could do, for all the people were hanging on his words.
1One day, as Jesus was teaching the people in the temple and preaching the gospel, the chief priests and the scribes with the elders came up
2and said to him, “Tell us by what authority you do these things, or who it is that gave you this authority.”
3He answered them, “I also will ask you a question. Now tell me,
4was the baptism of John from heaven or from man?”
5And they discussed it with one another, saying, “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ he will say, ‘Why did you not believe him?’
6But if we say, ‘From man,’ all the people will stone us to death, for they are convinced that John was a prophet.”
7So they answered that they did not know where it came from.
8And Jesus said to them, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things.”
