Luke 20:1-8

Jesus's Authority Challenged

Luke 20:1-8
1
One day, as Yeshua was teaching the people at the Temple, making known the Good News, the head cohanim and the Torah-teachers, along with the elders, came up to him
2
and said, “Tell us, what s’mikhah do you have that authorizes you to do these things? Who gave you this s’mikhah?”
3
He answered, “I too will ask you a question. Tell me,
4

5
They discussed it among themselves, saying, “If we say, ‘From Heaven,’ he will say, ‘Then why didn’t you believe him?’
6
But if we say, ‘From a human source,’ all the people will stone us, because they’re convinced that Yochanan was a prophet.”
7
So they answered, “We don’t know where it came from.”
8
Yeshua said to them, “Then I won’t tell you by what s’mikhah I do these things.”
