Jesus knew that John's authority came from heaven. He asked the question so the Jewish leaders would have to tell what they thought to all who were listening. AT: "Do you think John's authority to baptize people came from heaven or from men?" or "Do you think God told John to baptize people, or did people tell him to do it?" Jesus knows that John's authority comes from heaven, so he is not asking for information. He asks the question so the Jewish leaders will have to tell what they think to all who are listening. This question is rhetorical, but you will probably have to translate it as a question.

"From God." Depending on how the question was translated in the previous verse, this may be translated as "God did" or "God authorized him." "From God." Jewish people avoided referring to God by his name "Yahweh." Often they used the word "heaven" to refer to him. See how these words are translated in [Luke 20:4](../03.md).

##### Paradox ##### ##### Paradox #####
A paradox is a seemingly absurd statement, which appears to contradict itself, but it is not absurd. In this chapter, Jesus quotes a psalm that records David as calling his son "lord," that is, "master." However, to the Jews, their ancestors were greater than their descendants. In this passage, Jesus is trying to lead his hearers to the true understanding that the Messiah will himself be divine, and that he himself is the Messiah.
