King James Translators' Notes

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary

11:27-33 Our Saviour shows how near akin his doctrine and baptism were to those of John; they had the same design and tendency, to bring in the gospel kingdom. These elders did not deserve to be taught; for it was plain that they contended not for truth, but victory: nor did he need to tell them; for the works he did, told them plainly he had authority from God; since no man could do the miracles which he did, unless God were with him.


Mark 11:28 and began saying to Him, "By what authority are You doing these things, or who gave You this authority to do these things?"
Mark 11:30 "Was the baptism of John from heaven, or from men? Answer Me." (NASB ©1995)
