Luke 7:19-28

19John sent them to the Lord, saying, “Are you the One who is to come, or should we look for another?”

20When they appeared before Him, the men said, “John the Immerser sent us to you, saying, ‘Are you the One who is to come, or shall we look for another?’”

21At this very hour He was healing many of diseases, sicknesses, and evil spirits; and He granted sight to many who were blind.

22And answering, He said to them, “Go report to John what you saw and heard: the blind see, the lame walk, those with tza'arat are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, and the poor have good news proclaimed to them.

23Blessed is he who is not led to stumble because of Me.”

24And after John’s messengers left, He began to speak about John to the crowds. “What did you go out to the wilderness to see? A reed shaken by the wind?

25No? So what did you go out to see? A man dressed in fine garments? Look, those who wear finery and live in luxury are in the palaces of kings!

26Then what did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I tell you, even more than a prophet.

27This is the one about whom it is written, ‘Behold, I send My messenger before You, who will prepare Your way before You.’

28I say to you, there is no one greater than John among those born of women; yet the least in the kingdom of God is greater than he.”
