Luke 3:15

But as the people were in expectation, and all were reasoning in their hearts concerning John whether he might be the Christ,

And this is the witness of John, when the Jews sent from Jerusalem priests and Levites that they might ask him, Thou, who art thou?

Ye yourselves bear me witness that I said, I am not the Christ, but, that I am sent before him.

The Jews therefore surrounded him, and said to him, Until when dost thou hold our soul in suspense? If thou art the Christ, say so to us openly.
