Messenger

Matthew 11:
2Now when John heard in prison about the deeds of the Christ, he sent word by his disciples  3and said to him, "Are you he who is to come, or shall we look for another?"  4And Jesus answered them, "Go and tell John what you hear and see:  5the blind receive their sight and the lame walk, lepers are cleansed and the deaf hear, and the dead are raised up, and the poor have good news preached to them.  6And blessed is he who takes no offense at me."  7As they went away, Jesus began to speak to the crowds concerning John: "What did you go out into the wilderness to behold? A reed shaken by the wind?  8Why then did you go out? To see a man clothed in soft raiment? Behold, those who wear soft raiment are in kings' houses.  9Why then did you go out? To see a prophet? Yes, I tell you, and more than a prophet.  10This is he of whom it is written, `Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way before thee.' 11Truly, I say to you, among those born of women there has risen no one greater than John the Baptist; yet he who is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.
