The blind receive their sight. The lame walk! The lepers are cleansed, and the deaf hear. The dead are raised up, and the poor have good news preached to them. Blessed and happy is he who is not offended by me. When these men left, Jesus spoke to the crowds about John. What did you go into the wilderness to find? Did you look for a reed shaken by the wind? What did you expect to see, a man clothed in fancy clothes? Those who wear fancy clothes are in king's houses. Did you go to see a prophet? Yes, I tell you, and much more than a prophet! This is he of whom it is written: 'Behold, I send my messenger ahead of you. He will prepare the way for you.' I tell you, there is none, born of women, greater then John the Baptist. Yet the least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he. From the days of John the Baptist until now, the kingdom of heaven has been man's goal, and men of violence have attempted to take it by force. For all the Prophets and the Law prophesied until John. If you are willing to receive it, this is Elijah, who is to come. He who has ears to hear let him listen! Of what shall I compare this generation? It is like children sitting in the marketplaces, who call to their playmates. They say: 'We piped for you and you did not dance. We cried and you did not mourn.' For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, 'He has a demon.' The Son of man came eating and drinking, and they say, 'A gluttonous man and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!' Wisdom is justified by its actions.
