Hosanna and the House of Prayer · Mark 11

Story guide: The officials confer quietly, weighing how to answer Jesus and looking toward the people who regarded John as a prophet.

31And they were reasoning among themselves, saying, “What should we say? If we say, ‘From heaven,’ he will say, ‘Why then did you not believe him?’”

32But if we say, ‘From men’?”—they were afraid of the crowd, for everyone held that John truly was a prophet.
