24When John’s messengers had gone, Jesus
Greek he
began to speak to the crowds concerning John: What did you go out binto the wilderness to see? cA reed shaken by the wind?
25What then did you go out to see? A man dressed in soft clothing? Behold, those who are dressed in splendid clothing and live in luxury are in kings’ courts. 26What then did you go out to see? dA prophet? Yes, I tell you, and more than a prophet. 27This is he of whom it is written,

e“‘Behold, I send my messenger before your face,
who will prepare your way before you.’
