Luke 7:19-28

19and sent them to Jesus to ask, “Are you the one who is to come, or should we look for another?”

20When the men came to Jesus, they said, “John the Baptist has sent us to you to ask, ‘Are you the one who is to come, or should we look for another?’”

21At that very time Jesus cured many people of diseases, sicknesses, and evil spirits, and granted sight to many who were blind.

22So he answered them, “Go tell John what you have seen and heard: The blind see, the lame walk, lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, the poor have good news proclaimed to them.

23Blessed is anyone who takes no offense at me.”

24When John’s messengers had gone, Jesus began to speak to the crowds about John: “What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken by the wind?

25What did you go out to see? A man dressed in fancy clothes? Look, those who wear fancy clothes and live in luxury are in kings’ courts!

26What 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, ‘Look, I am sending my messenger ahead of you, who will prepare your way before you.’

28I tell you, among those born of women no one is greater than John. Yet the one who is least in the kingdom of God is greater than he is.”
