Скачать или смотреть "The Question of Authority" - When Religious Leaders Challenged Jesus (Luke 20:1-2)

In this pivotal confrontation from Luke 20:1-2, the religious authorities approach Jesus with a seemingly simple question: "By what authority are you doing these things? And who gave you this authority?"

This is a tense moment in the temple courts where Jesus' growing influence threatened the established religious order. This question reveals more about the questioners than about Jesus, showing their attempt to delegitimize His ministry while protecting their position.

What makes this exchange so powerful is how Jesus responds - not with defensiveness, but by exposing their true motives through His own counter-question about John the Baptist. This passage challenges us to examine our own relationship with authority, especially divine authority that disrupts our comfortable systems and beliefs.
