Luke 7:28-30

New Catholic Bible

²⁸ “I tell you, among those born of women, no one is greater than John, and yet the least in the kingdom of God is greater than he.”

²⁹ (All the people who heard him, including the tax collectors, acknowledged the saving justice of God, for they had received John’s baptism. ³⁰ However, the Pharisees and the teachers of the Law who had refused his baptism rejected God’s plan for them.)
