Sunday, 20 September 2026 saying, “What do you think about the Christ? Whose Son is He?” They said to Him, “The Son of David.” Matthew 22:42 “saying, ‘What – you, you think about the Christ? Whose Son, He is?’ They say to Him, ‘The ‘of David’.’” (CG) In the previous verse, it was noted that when the Pharisees had gathered together, Jesus asked them a question.
