Bible Reading: Luke 7:31-35

“The Stubborn Children” (A commentary by Jesus)

Luke 7:31-35

“To what then shall I liken the men of this generation? And what are they like?

They are like children sitting in the market place, calling to one another and saying, ‘We have piped to you, and you have not danced; we have sung dirges, and you have not wept.’

For John the Baptist came neither eating bread nor drinking wine, and you say, ‘He has a devil.’

The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and you say, ‘Behold a man who is a glutton, and a wine-drinker, a friend of publicans and sinners!’

And wisdom is justified by all her children."
