Luke 7:28 In-Context

26 What then did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I tell you, and more than a prophet.

27 This is he of whom it is written, 'Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way before thee.'

28 I tell you, among those born of women none is greater than John; yet he who is least in the kingdom of God is greater than he."

29 (When they heard this all the people and the tax collectors justified God, having been baptized with the baptism of John;

30 but the Pharisees and the lawyers rejected the purpose of God for themselves, not having been baptized by him.)
