Who gave You such right?

Now let me ask you a question.

Tell Me, did John's right to baptize come from God or from man?

What shall we say?

If we were to say, From God,

He will say, Why then, don't you believe John?

But if we say, From man, this whole crowd here will stone us.

They're all convinced that John was a prophet.

We don't know where it came from.

Neither will I tell you then by what right I do these things.
