Lukas 22,71
69 Men fra nå av skal Menneskesønnen sitte ved Guds makts høyre hånd.”
70 De spurte alle, “Er du da Guds Sønn?” Han svarte, “Dere sier det.”
Da sa de, “Hvorfor trenger vi flere vitnesbyrd? Vi har hørt det fra Hans egne lepper.”
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.
