The Authority of Christ is questioned

Mark 11:27-33; Luke 20:1-8.

23. By what authority doest thou these things? and who gave thee this authority? The second question is not a mere repetition of the first, Jesus is asked (1) what kind of authority He possesses human or divine? (2) By whose agency this authority was bestowed? No one had a right to teach unless "authority" had been conferred upon him by the scribes.
