Context Reading
14If you are willing to receive it, this is Elijah, who is to come. 15He who has ears to hear, let him hear. 16“But to what shall I compare this generation? It is like children sitting in the marketplaces, who call to their companions 17and say, ‘We played the flute for you, and you didn’t dance. We mourned for you, and you didn’t lament.’ 18For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, ‘He has a demon.’
