Luc 20:8 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 20:8

And Jesus said unto them
Since they would not give him a direct answer to his question:

neither tell I you by what authority I do these things;
nor was there any need of it; they might easily perceive by what he had said, from whence he professed to have received his authority, from God, and not men; (See Gill on Matthew 21:27).

Luc 20:8 In-Context

6 Et si nous disons: Des hommes, tout le peuple nous lapidera; car il est persuadé que Jean est un prophète.
7 C'est pourquoi ils répondirent qu'ils ne savaient d'où il venait.
8 Et Jésus leur dit: Je ne vous dirai pas non plus par quelle autorité je fais ces choses.
9 Alors il se mit à dire au peuple cette parabole: Un homme planta une vigne, et la loua à des vignerons, et fut longtemps absent.
10 Et la saison étant venue, il envoya un serviteur vers les vignerons, afin qu'ils lui donnassent du fruit de la vigne; mais les vignerons l'ayant battu, le renvoyèrent à vide.
