But what went ye out to see? a man clad in fine attire? they that wear rich clothes are in the palaces of kings. But what did ye indeed go out to see? a prophet? Yes, verily, and one superior to a prophet. For this is he, of whom it is written, "Behold I send my messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way before thee."

When the messengers of John were departed, He began to speak unto the people concerning John, what went ye out into the wilderness to see? a reed shaken by the wind? but what did ye go out to see? a man clothed in soft raiment? behold, they that are dressed in fine clothes and live delicately, are in palaces, not in deserts: but what went ye out to see? a prophet? yea, I say unto you, and much more than a prophet.
