1 Now it came to pass, when Jesus finished commanding His twelve disciples, that He departed from there to ateach and to preach in their cities.  
2 aAnd when John had heard bin prison about the works of Christ, he1 sent two of his disciples  
3 and said to Him, “Are You athe Coming One, or do we look for another?”  
4 Jesus answered and said to them, “Go and tell John the things which you hear and see:
5 aThe blind see and the lame walk; the lepers are cleansed and the deaf hear; the dead are raised up and bthe poor have the gospel preached to them.  
6 And blessed is he who is not aoffended because of Me.”  
7 aAs they departed, Jesus began to say to the multitudes concerning John: “What did you go out into the wilderness to see? bA reed shaken by the wind?
