So Mcn = Luke 20:1-8 :
What they lie about John is paradoxically true about Jesus: they knew not whence Jesus was.
Therefore their answer to Jesus's question is precisely the answer that Jesus would have given them: his origin is ALIEN.
If the scribes don't recognize the origin of John prophet of the Demiurge, how could they claim knowledge of the origin of Jesus the Christ of another God?20: 1 And it came to pass, that on one of those days,
as he was teaching the people in the temple,
and announcing the glad tidings,
there came upon him the chief priests and the scribes with the elders,
2 And spake unto him, saying,
Tell us, by what authority doest thou these things?
or who is he that gave thee this authority?
3 And he answered and said unto them,
I will also ask you one word and tell me:
4 The baptism of John, was it from heaven, or of men?
5 And they reasoned with themselves, saying,
If we shall say, From heaven; he will say, Why then believed ye him not?
6 But if we say, Of men; all the people will stone us:
for they be persuaded that John was a prophet.
7 And they answered, that they knew not whence it was.
8 And Jesus said unto them,
Neither tell I you by what authority I do these things.
What they lie about John is paradoxically true about Jesus: they knew not whence Jesus was.
Therefore their answer to Jesus's question is precisely the answer that Jesus would have given them: his origin is ALIEN.
