The Unanswerable Question of Jesus

Now while the Pharisees were gathered together Jesus asked them a question, saying, “What think ye of the Christ? whose son is he?”

They say unto him, “The son of David.”

He saith unto them, “How then doth David in the Spirit call him Lord, saying,

“‘The Lord said unto my Lord,
Sit thou on my right hand,
Till I put thine enemies underneath thy feet’?

“If David then calleth him Lord, how is he his son?”

And no one was able to answer him a word, neither durst any man from that day forth ask him any more questions.

And the common people heard him gladly.
