29. And Jesus answering said to them, I also will ask you one thing, and answer me, and I will tell you by what authority I do these things:
30. The baptism of John, was it of heaven, or of men? answer me.
31. And they reasoned with themselves, saying, If we should say, Of heaven, he will say, Why then have ye not believed him?
32. but should we say, Of men--they feared the people; for all held of John that he was truly a prophet.
