Luke 20:6 - Barnes' Notes

Luke 20:6

4 The ^abaptism of John—was it from heaven or from men?”

5 And they reasoned among themselves, saying, “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ He will say, ‘Why¹ then did you not believe him?’

6 But if we say, ‘From men,’ all the people will stone us, ^afor they are persuaded that John was a prophet.”

7 So they answered that they did not know where it was from.

8 And Jesus said to them, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things.”
