“But if we say, ‘From men,’ all the people will stone us, for they are convinced that John was a prophet.”
Luke 20:6 (BSB)
Context Reading
4John’s baptism — was it from heaven, or from men?” 5They deliberated among themselves and said, “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ He will ask, ‘Why did you not believe him?’ 6But if we say, ‘From men,’ all the people will stone us, for they are convinced that John was a prophet.” 7So they answered that they did not know where it was from. 8And Jesus replied, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I am doing these things.”
