Annas Questions Jesus's Authority
A Pharisee named Annas asks Jesus what right He has to say the kinds of things he says. In return, Jesus asks Annas a question. Jesus asks whether John's right to baptize came from God or from man. Annas turns with other Pharisees and talks to them. So they go back to Jesus and answer that they don't know who gave John the right to baptize. Jesus stares back. He says since they don't know, he won't tell them who gave Him the authority to teach the things He's been teaching.

DelenOne day as Jesus was teaching the people in the temple courts and proclaiming the gospel, the chief priests and scribes, together with the elders, came up to Him. “Tell us,” they said, “by what authority are You doing these things, and who gave You this authority?” “I will also ask you a question,” Jesus replied. “Tell Me: John’s baptism — was it from heaven, or from men?” They deliberated among themselves and said, “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ He will ask, ‘Why did you not believe him?’ But if we say, ‘From men,’ all the people will stone us, for they are convinced that John was a prophet.” So they answered that they did not know where it was from. And Jesus replied, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I am doing these things.”
