Lamsa⁽ⁱ⁾ ²⁴ When JohnÆs disciples had gone, Jesus began to speak to the people concerning John, What did you go out to the wilderness to see? A reed which is shaken by the wind? ²⁵ If not so, what did you go out to see? A man dressed in fine clothes? Behold, those who wear fine clothes and live delicately are in kingsÆ houses. ²⁶ And if not so, what did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I say to you, and much more than a prophet. ²⁷ This is he of whom it is written, Behold, I send my messenger before your face, to prepare the way before you.
