22 “And whatever you ask in prayer, believing, you shall receive.”
23 And when He had come into the Set-apart Place, the chief priests and the elders of the people came to Him as He was teaching, and said, “By what authority are You doing these? And who gave You this authority?”

27 And they answered יהושע and said, “We do not know.” And He said to them, “Neither do I say to you by what authority I do these.
