Luke 22:68
66 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.
And if I ask you a question, you will not answer.
69 But from now on the Son of Man will be seated at the right hand of the power of God.”
70 So they all asked, “Are You then the Son of God?” He replied, “You say that I am.”
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.
