Luke 7:24-28

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.”
