Luke 7:24-27

24After John’s messengers left, he began to speak to the crowds about John: “What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed swaying in the wind?

25What then did you go out to see? A man dressed in soft clothes? See, those who are splendidly dressed and live in luxury are in royal palaces.

26What then did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I tell you, and more than a prophet.

27This is the one about whom it is written: See, I am sending my messenger ahead of you; he will prepare your way before you.
