Matthew 21:25-27 The baptism of John, where was it from? from heaven, or from men? And they reasoned among themselves, saying, If we shall say, From heaven; he will say to us, Why then did you not believe him?

RKJNT⁽ⁱ⁾ ²⁵ The baptism of John, where was it from? from heaven, or from men? And they reasoned among themselves, saying, If we shall say, From heaven; he will say to us, Why then did you not believe him? ²⁶ But if we shall say, From men; we fear the people; for all hold that John was a prophet. ²⁷ And they answered Jesus, and said, We do not know. And he said to them, Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things.
