LITV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁰ And His disciples asked Him, saying, Why then do the scribes say that Elijah must come first? ¹¹ And answering, Jesus said to them, Elijah indeed comes first and shall restore all things. ¹² But I say to you, Elijah has already come, and they did not know him, but did to him whatever they desired. So also the Son of man is about to suffer by them. ¹³ Then the disciples understood that He spoke to them about John the Baptist.
