John 1:19 In-Context

17 For the Law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.

18 No human eye has ever seen God: the only Son, who is in the Father's bosom--He has made Him known.

19 This also is John's testimony, when the Jews sent to him a deputation of Priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him who he was.

20 He avowed--he did not conceal the truth, but avowed, "I am not the Christ."

21 "What then?" they inquired; "are you Elijah?" "I am not," he said. "Are you the Prophet?" "No," he answered.
