Lucas 20

The baptism of John, was it from heaven, or of men?
*
Os líderes religiosos temem admitir a origem divina do batismo de João, pois isso implicaria reconhecer sua rejeição a ele (cf. Lc 7:29-30). A pergunta de Jesus expõe sua hipocrisia.
And they reasoned with themselves, saying, If we shall say, From heaven; he will say, Why then believed ye him not?
