Matthew 21:23-27 The Nature & Origin of Jesus’ Authority

  • Summary

  • After Jesus' triumphal entry and the cleansing of the temple the religious leader in Jerusalem were angry. So when He returned he was met with a huge group of chief priests and elders. This group asked Jesus two insincere questions. 1) By what authority are You doing these things, and 2) Who gave You this authority? Jesus' response is a bit confusing on the surface. He asks them a question, and says if they answer His question He will answer theirs. He asks, 'What is the source of John's the Baptist's baptism, from heaven or of man?' Does this question seem odd to you? How is John's baptism in any way related to Jesus' authority to march into the city representing Himself as 'the Son of David' and His authority to cleanse the temple. Listen as Pastor Matt explains this remarkable text.
