Contextual Overview

²⁷ Jesus and his followers went again to Jerusalem. As Jesus was walking in the Temple, the leading priests, the teachers of the law, and the elders came to him. ²⁸ They said to him, "What authority do you have to do these things? Who gave you this authority?" ²⁹ Jesus answered, "I will ask you one question. If you answer me, I will tell you what authority I have to do these things. ³⁰ Tell me: When John baptized people, was that authority from God or just from other people?" ³¹ They argued about Jesus' question, saying, "If we answer, ‘John's baptism was from God,' Jesus will say, ‘Then why didn't you believe him?' ³² But if we say, ‘It was from other people,' the crowd will be against us." (These leaders were afraid of the people, because all the people believed that John was a prophet.) ³³ So they answered Jesus, "We don't know." Jesus said to them, "Then I won't tell you what authority I have to do these things."

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And they answered and said unto Jesus,.... Being reduced by this dilemma to the greatest streight and difficulty;

we cannot tell: they could, if they would, but they did not care to tell; they knew if they did, they should expose themselves one way or other:

and Jesus answering, saith unto them, neither do I tell you by what authority I do these things; :-.
