Luke 7:30 In-Context

28 I can guarantee that of all the people ever born, no one is greater than John. Yet, the least important person in the kingdom of God is greater than John.
29 "All the people, including tax collectors, heard John. They admitted that God was right by letting John baptize them.
30 But the Pharisees and the experts in Moses' Teachings rejected God's plan for them. They refused to be baptized.
31 "How can I describe the people who are living now? What are they like?
32 They are like children who sit in the marketplace and shout to each other, 'We played music for you, but you didn't dance. We sang a funeral song, but you didn't cry.'
