Luke 22:66
64 They blindfolded Him and kept demanding, “Prophesy! Who hit You?”
65 And they said many other blasphemous things against Him.
At daybreak the council of the elders of the people, both the chief priests and scribes, met together. They led Jesus into their Sanhedrin and said,
67 “If You are the Christ, tell us.” Jesus answered, “If I tell you, you will not believe.
68 And if I ask you a question, you will not answer.
Here the Bible tells a story about someone else. Ask yourself what it can say to us today. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
