Now a leper came to him and fell to his knees, asking for help. "If you are willing, you can make me clean," he said.

Then the Pharisees came and began to argue with Jesus, asking for a sign from heaven to test him.

But Jesus said to them, "You don't know what you are asking! Are you able to drink the cup I drink or be baptized with the baptism I experience?"

They had been asking each other, "Who will roll away the stone for us from the entrance to the tomb?"
