Lucas 20:2

Listen to Lucas 20:2
2 y le hablaron, diciéndole: Dinos, ¿con qué autoridad haces estas cosas, o quién te dio esta autoridad?

Lucas 20:2 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 20:2

And spoke unto him, saying, tell us by what authority
doest thou these things?
&c.] The Arabic and Ethiopic versions read, "this thing"; as if the sanhedrim only referred to his preaching the Gospel, which is mentioned in the preceding verse, and was what he was about when they came to him: but the Persic version reads, "all these things"; not only preaching, but working miracles; and particularly driving the buyers and sellers out of the temple, which especially affected them, they losing their rents thereby:

or who is he that gave thee this authority?
God or man? (See Gill on Matthew 21:23).

Lucas 20:2 In-Context

1 Y aconteció que en uno de los días cuando El enseñaba a la gente en el templo y anunciaba el evangelio, se le enfrentaron los principales sacerdotes y los escribas con los ancianos,
2 y le hablaron, diciéndole: Dinos, ¿con qué autoridad haces estas cosas, o quién te dio esta autoridad?
3 Respondiendo El, les dijo: Yo también os haré una pregunta; decidme:
4 El bautismo de Juan, ¿era del cielo o de los hombres?
5 Y ellos discurrían entre sí, diciendo: Si decimos: "Del cielo", El dirá: "¿Por qué no le creísteis?"
