Context of Luke 22:67
65And many other things they blasphemously spoke against Him. 66As soon as it was day, the elders of the people, both chief priests and scribes, came together and led Him into their council, saying, “If You are the Christ, tell us.” But He said to them, “If I tell you, you will by no means believe. 68And if I also ask you, you will by no means answer Me or let Me go. 69Hereafter the Son of Man will sit on the right hand of the power of God.”

Let us meditate on this amazing transaction…Read the comment
