Marc 11:30

Listen to Marc 11:30
30 Le baptême de Jean venait-il du ciel, ou des hommes? Répondez-moi.

Marc 11:30 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 11:30

The baptism of John
The doctrine of which he was the first preacher, and the ordinance of which he was the first administrator:

was it from heaven, or of men?
was it of divine or of human institution?

answer me;
directly and plainly, without any shuffling, or evasion: it is a fair question, and may be answered; and the answer to it our Lord suggests would naturally lead to a proper one to their question; (See Gill on Matthew 21:25).

Marc 11:30 In-Context

28 Et ils lui dirent: Par quelle autorité fais-tu ces choses, et qui t'a donné l'autorité de les faire?
29 Jésus, répondant, leur dit: Je vous demanderai aussi une chose, répondez-moi, et je vous dirai par quelle autorité je fais ces choses.
30 Le baptême de Jean venait-il du ciel, ou des hommes? Répondez-moi.
31 Or, ils raisonnaient en eux-mêmes, disant: Si nous disons: Du ciel; il dira: Pourquoi donc n'y avez-vous pas cru
32 Et si nous disons: Des hommes; nous craignons le peuple; car tous croyaient que Jean était un vrai prophète.
