Lucas 7:18

Jesús y Juan el Bautista

18 Los discípulos de Juan le contaron todo esto. Él llamó a dos de ellos

Lucas 7:18 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 7:18

And the disciples of John showed him of all these things.
] The miracles that were wrought by Christ; particularly the healing of the centurion's servant, and the raising from the dead the widow of Naim's son, and what fame and reputation Christ got every where by his doctrine, and mighty works. John was now in prison, when these his disciples came and related these things to him; see ( Matthew 11:2 ) and they spoke of them, not as commending Christ for them; but as envying, grieving, and complaining, that he carried away all the honour and glory from John their master, for whom they had the greatest regard.

16 Todos se llenaron de temor y alababan a Dios.—Ha surgido entre nosotros un gran profeta —decían—. Dios ha venido en ayuda de su pueblo.
17 Así que esta noticia acerca de Jesús se divulgó por toda Judea y por todas las regiones vecinas.
18 Los discípulos de Juan le contaron todo esto. Él llamó a dos de ellos
19 y los envió al Señor a preguntarle:—¿Eres tú el que ha de venir, o debemos esperar a otro?
20 Cuando se acercaron a Jesús, ellos le dijeron:—Juan el Bautista nos ha enviado a preguntarte: “¿Eres tú el que ha de venir, o debemos esperar a otro?”
