24(For John had not yet been thrown into prison.)
25Then a dispute arose between John’s disciples and a certain Jew over the issue of ceremonial washing.
26So John’s disciples came to him and said, “Look, Rabbi, the One who was with you beyond the Jordan, the One you testified about — He is baptizing, and everyone is going to Him.”

28You yourselves can testify that I said, ‘I am not the Christ, but am sent ahead of Him.’
