29 Jesus answered them, “I will also ask of you one question. Answer Me, and I will tell you by what authority I do these things.
30 Was the baptism of John from heaven or from men? Answer Me.”
31 They debated among themselves, saying, “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ He will say, ‘Why then did you not believe him?’
32 But if we say, ‘From men’ ”—they feared the people, for everyone held John to be a real prophet.
33 So they answered Jesus, “We do not know.”Jesus answered them, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things.”
