Matthew 21:27 in Context — Matthew 21
25 De onde era o batismo de João? Do céu, ou dos seres humanos?E eles pensaram entre si mesmos, dizendo: Se dissermos: “Do céu”, ele nos dirá: “Por que, então, não crestes nele?
26 Mas se dissermos: “Dos seres humanos”, temos medo da multidão, pois todos consideram João como profeta.
27 Então responderam a Jesus: Não sabemos. E ele lhes disse: Nem eu vos digo com que autoridade faço isto.
28 Mas que vos parece? Um homem tinha dois filhos. Aproximando-se do primeiro, disse: “Filho, vai hoje trabalhar na minha vinha.”
29 Porém ele respondeu: “Não quero”; mas depois se arrependeu, e foi.
