Yochanan 1:24-26

Orthodox Jewish Bible

²⁴ And the ones that had been sent were of the Perushim.

²⁵ And the Perushim asked Yochanan, If you are not the [Rebbe,] Melech HaMoshiach nor Eliyahu nor the Navi, then why do you administer the mikveh mayim’s tevilah?

²⁶ Yochanan answered the Perushim, I give a tevilah in a mikveh mayim; among you is standing one of whom you do not have da’as.
