## Mark 11:30-33 in Context (Verses 27–33 KJV)
 
 [27 ](/kjv/mark/11/27) ¶ And they come again to Jerusalem: and as he was walking in the temple, there come to him the chief priests, and the scribes, and the elders,
 
 [28 ](/kjv/mark/11/28) And say unto him, By what authority doest thou these things? and who gave thee this authority to do these things?
 
 [29 ](/kjv/mark/11/29) And Jesus answered and said unto them, I will also ask of you one question, and answer me, and I will tell you by what authority I do these things.
 
 [30 ](/kjv/mark/11/30) The baptism of John, was *it* from heaven, or of men? answer me.
 
 [31 ](/kjv/mark/11/31) And they reasoned with themselves, saying, If we shall say, From heaven; he will say, Why then did ye not believe him?
 
 [32 ](/kjv/mark/11/32) But if we shall say, Of men; they feared the people: for all *men* counted John, that he was a prophet indeed.
 
 [33 ](/kjv/mark/11/33) And they answered and said unto Jesus, We cannot tell. And Jesus answering saith unto them, Neither do I tell you by what authority I do these things.
