Now it came to pass, when Jesus finished commanding His twelve disciples, that He departed from there to teach and to preach in their cities.
2
And when John had heard in prison about the works of Christ, he sent two of his disciples
3
and said to Him, "Are You the Coming One, or do we look for another?"
4
Jesus answered and said to them, "Go and tell John the things which you hear and see:
5
The blind see and the lame walk; the lepers are cleansed and the deaf hear; the dead are raised up and the poor have the gospel preached to them.
6
And blessed is he who is not offended because of Me."
7
As they departed, Jesus began to say to the multitudes concerning John: "What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken by the wind?
8
But what did you go out to see? A man clothed in soft garments? Indeed, those who wear soft clothing are in kings' houses.
